(EP12) What to Expect Your Third Year in Business


Listen Later

The trilogy is completed. Hear about the biggest challenges—and lessons—Alex and Lisa experienced their third year running a business together.

 

In Year 3, Alex and Lisa learned:

  • How to separate their personal relationships with their team members from their professional relationships 
  • You can’t expect your team members to work as hard as you when you’re the business owners—it’s important to remember that, for them, in many ways it is “just a job”
  • A common frustration for business owners: when employees think you don’t care, despite clearly demonstrating that you do
  • When they were pushed to the brink, Alex & Lisa found their resilience. As long as there’s an end in sight, you can find your inner power to move through an intense season 

 

Optimizer Tip: Have a regular, structured family meeting, just like you do with your team at work.
