Greetings! |
|
Several of you attended our presentation "Financials - Think You're an Expert" on 5/21 at Venture Bank in Golden Valley. On behalf of our presentation partners B2B CFO and Venture Bank, we thank you for attending. We plan to host more events in the future so please watch for the announcements.
This month my boards shared their Bucket Lists. Folks had some pretty cool ideas of things they'd like to do, places to visit and experiences to have. The lesson that came from the discussions was that we tend to wait too long to pursue our dreams and passions. The time to act is NOW! So get going on making those things realities!

Why Management Exists |
|
Too many managers get wrapped up in "kingdom building" – spending the majority of their efforts on expanding their territory and establishing their authority. But these efforts are largely selfish, with a focus on the impact the manager is having on the organization, rather than the impact of the people he or she is managing. The best managers realize that their jobs exist to support and empower the people they manage. It’s important to remember that management is not the revenue-generating function of your business. The people doing the work (and being managed) are creating the product or service your business delivers.

Actions, Not Words |
|
Something I learned from my grandfather many years ago served me well when I was an employee, and it serves me well as a business owner. "Don’t tell them what you can do. Show them what you can do!" he used to say. I’ve instilled this into the culture of our organization and it has made us a better company.

Managing the Masters |
|
As a manager, it is not necessary for you to know everything. The people who work for you should be the "masters." It is your job to manage their abilities.
