Leverage in business, from my perspective, is the ability to use what you have — or may not have — to move your business forward. The truth is, I didn’t know or appreciate the concept of leverage in my early days of business.
A few examples of leverage:
What I have come to understand from my experiences in down times or times of crisis is that while it is important to be resilient and move forward, the ability to leverage what you have — including cash, people, and places — is more important.?Power comes to those who are able to leverage what they have to keep their business moving forward.
We’ve been asking you to take time to reflect on what you’ve been doing. When I began seriously looking at how I was able to secure some of my earlier business deals, I was surprised to realize that it was all about leverage without me even knowing it!
By bringing the concept of leverage front and center for you, I hope you don’t have to suffer or struggle as long as I did to lead or start your business or organization.
