It's simple. Just run your family like a Business. Why not? \xa0 By using an empowering management style, who's to say that we can't educate, parent, and inspire ambition in our children as we raise them along side of our businesses? \xa0 If you are a parent struggling to balance career with family, you won't want to miss this discussion. \xa0 Simplify. Compartmentalize. Profit. \xa0 This is a revolutionary time for all parent entrepreneurs, but as we will discuss, we are still pioneering the industry- and that means paving the way for a younger generation of parent entrepreneurs. We know them now as our children. \xa0 In a world of entitlement and increasing dependence, it is important that we teach and inspire our kids to listen, be observant, work well with others, adapt, stay accountable and self-sufficient, and follow their inner sense of integrity. \xa0 Do we as adults encompass all of those things? Can you imagine how much we would be accomplishing by now if this is the way we'd been raised? \xa0 This week, I will be introducing you to successful entrepreneur, public speaker, author and businessman, Chris Efessiou. Chris found himself facing his greatest challenge when his marriage ended and he was left to raise his seven-year old daughter on his own. Without a manual, he stuck with what he knew and discovered that the same skills critical to success as a business leader seamlessly transferred to parenting. Chris will be joining us to share his discovery on how the principles that are essential in team building can be used to build a prosperous business and a loving family.
