How Strong is Your Team?

How Strong is Your Team?

I constantly find myself evaluating the people I spend the majority of my time with, not like the investigative judgement based type evaluations, but just a quick check to see if my social circle is serving me in a positive way, and consequently whether i'm doing the same. 

When it comes to the people you work with, these evaluations become even more important. Starting a business venture with just a few friends, you learn quickly how to perform many different roles and responsibilities, but most importantly you learn you CN'T do everything alone.  

When family and friends offer their energies, take it. Spend time with ya folks and identify things they're good at or passionate about, develop these skills and relationships in a very mutually beneficial way.  Of course, it's important to not always hire friends and family, but in the early stages of your venture these early adopters are crucial to long-term progress.
