So the job of a good manager in business is to create competency and productivity in their employees.
And for some reason in the late 90s, we said management was a bad word.

But if you create competency and productivity, you're a good manager.
A good leader creates passion and focus.
So a good coach does all four sort of things.
So eventually a business owner should look to be the coach of their own business.
So if I was coaching your business, I would be working with you one hour a week every week, right?
So technically in one hour a week, I'm actually running your business.
So what we train all of our owners to do is to have them become the coach of their own business.
To be able to build it.
It works without you.
Therefore, you become the coach and in one hour a week, you can run your business sort of thing.
So our definition of a business is a commercial profitable enterprise that works without you.
If you've got to be there, it's not a business.
