In this episode Tyson and Jim discuss about the perks of managing a growing firm.
As you hire more people, there are more people that are dependant of you. Sometimes this consumes your time and your energy. Don't become a bottleneck in your firm.
Keep track of what it is that needs to get done. Make a list and then figure out who's the best to do it. This will give you more space and time to you to make the things YOU need to do.
KPI: Key Performance Indicators: Things that you can identify, you can look at, that give an idea of what the direction of your firm is. For example: new clients, new leads. If you have your KPI’s in place you can correctly determine whether to hire or not a new employee or which decisions should be made. Put plans in place and follow through.
