Anyone can sit in the office and scream out orders for employees to follow.
But it takes a great leader to communicate the vision and mission of the business and inspire his team to take steps to achieve them because they believe it.
Much of the success of small businesses are dependent on the leadership of the business owner.
Many business owners assume that since they own the business and manage its operations, they are qualified to lead it.

So how do you become the best leader you can be for your business?
Believe it or not, a business plan is not a document that you write once and forget about.It requires frequent review to maintain its effectiveness. A business plan is a living document and that means it needs to be updated as your business changes and grows.
