Shape the Conversation

There are problems in every business venture, but how do you know which are “good problems” and which are “bad problems”? Jon and Nicole discuss their experiences with each and how to accurately address them on this episode of Shape the Conversation.

Show Notes

There are good problems to have and then there are bad problems to have in the business world. Jon and Nicole recognize the problems that they faced when starting a company and talk about topics like:
  • Differentiating good problems from bad problems
  • How to properly address bad problems
  • How to build off of good problems
  • Taking a problem and turning it into a solution
  • Other members of your team will view problems differently 
  • And more...

Best advice we have is to remember problems can lead to opportunities.

 
Do not look at problems as failures, instead recognize the opportunity for growth that has been put in front of you and your company. To overcome problems, good or bad, shows that your business is mindful of its customers, has the ability to persevere, and is open to change.
