Is Your Business Too Broke to Fix? | A Story of Leadership and Accountability
May 16, 2023In this video, I want to share a story that might resonate with you if you're a business owner feeling overwhelmed and alone in your struggles. The story is about a business owner who thought his business may be too broke to fix, and how things turned around in a big way.
If you don’t know who I am, I’m Scott Miller, the owner of thegrowthleague.com. I’m making these videos to help restoration business owners get more profitable, reduce the chaos and build something they can sell for a lot of money when they are ready to move on. I also am hopeful that you’ll watch this video and take action - even if it’s simply booking a call with me.
The owner felt like he was the only one thinking about the problems and coming up with solutions. He felt like he was the only one who cared about the business. But when two leaders stepped up and others followed - things started to change. Now, the owner is feeling much better about the business than he has in a long time. It’s great to hear stories like this but a lot of times, you don’t get a peak behind the curtains - here’s how it started to come together:
π Teamwork makes the dream work: The leadership team meets every week for a lively, focused session, keeping everyone accountable and in sync.
π The mighty scorecard: Each team member tracks their top 2-5 performance indicators in a user-friendly Excel file, making sure everyone's game is on point!
π§ Problem-solving party: The team unites to tackle challenges and issues head-on, putting their collective brainpower to work for the best solutions.
π― Goal-getters: Regular check-ins on quarterly and annual objectives keep everyone aligned and motivated, ensuring the team stays on the path to success.
πͺ Continuous improvement: The team is always finding ways to optimize and grow the business from both organizational and profit perspectives, because who doesn't love a thriving workplace?
π Bonus tip from the team: Celebrate small wins and milestones together, fostering a positive team spirit that will propel your business to new heights. Remember, a happy team is a productive team!
If you're feeling overwhelmed and alone in your business struggles, remember that you don't have to go through it alone. Building a leadership team and holding one another accountable can make a huge difference - it did for me in my businesses and for many of my clients as well. So, take action and start building your own team today.
