Business = People + Profit

A simple equation governs business: Business = People + Profit.?

If you prioritize profit, you’ll burn out your people. If you prioritize your people, profit will come. But only if you have the right people.?

People form the foundation of every business. They bring energy. They bring ideas. They drive the business. There’s no strategy without people because people are the strategy.

Businesses can prioritize people in many ways. Investing in their growth. Giving them the support they need to thrive. Creating a culture where they feel valued. When people are engaged and motivated, profit follows.?

But it’s not just about filling seats. It’s about finding the right fit—those who believe in the mission and bring the skills to push it forward. Get that balance right, and the equation works.?

People first, profit follows.
