Business – The Primary Project

Business is a series of important projects that needs to be accomplished. The primary project we have as business owners is to be working on our own capabilities. We do this by constantly learning something new about ourselves, in relation to the people around us, and knowing what is going on in our business.

Commitment to building our own skills and capabilities is critical in leading our business to high performance. This commitment requires diligent attention and hard work. It also requires a daily, honest appraisal of our own performance in the business. We should be hard on ourselves in this respect. We can then address our shortcomings and celebrate our strengths and the things that we have done well and feel good about them.

The second most important project involves talking to others in our business about our insights and knowledge and rewarding them appropriately for their contributions.
