Eric Moch: The Reward of Autonomy

Just because you have an aptitude and skill for your business does not mean you are going to be qualified to lead and mentor people.

As the business owner, your employees will not care about your business as much as you do unless you give them a reason to.

You have to provide good talent a supportive, safe, nurturing environment, because it means more than money.

Recognize that, unless you have had specific management training, you are going to be bad at it at first. Leadership is a skill that must be learned from square one.
