If you want employees who really understand what it means to take ownership of their work, consider hiring former entrepreneurs. These people bring a unique blend of skills and experience that can be a game-changer for small to mid-sized businesses.
They’ve lived the daily grind of problem-solving and decision-making, managing tight resources, and finding creative solutions on the fly. Entrepreneurs know how to adapt, because they’ve had to do it every single day in their own businesses.
More importantly, they approach every task with an ownership mentality. They don’t just “clock in”, they see the bigger picture and treat your business like it’s their own. That kind of mindset is hard to find but essential for driving growth in a smaller organization.
And let’s not forget resilience. Entrepreneurs have dealt with failure, faced tough challenges, and kept moving forward. That’s the kind of drive and grit you want on your team, especially when times get tough.
