How do we hold ourselves personally accountable in business?

One of the most appealing aspects of running your own business is the freedom to develop it exactly as you want. 

Many, however, mistake this freedom to go in any direction with freedom from accountability. This is particularly true of those things that are not urgent and where the reward or cost is some way off in the future and it can seem easier to bury our heads in the sand and worry about it later.

The simple universal truth of 'cause and effect' means there are always consequences for our decisions and these can be favourable or unfavourable. 

In the Friday Hub this week, we'll look at how we can keep ourselves 'on mission' without ditching that personal freedom that we all value so highly.

As usual there are plenty of opportunities to meet others and discover the power of sharing and solving together - this is a gentle and light-hearted yet business focussed group where you can be sure to finish your week on a high...

The Friday Hub is Shropshire’s biggest, regular, FREE, business networking event. Every Friday 9.15-10.15am
