Even if they aren’t employees, you still need to learn how to manage freelancers from Fiverr, FancyHands, Craigslist, or wherever.
But where can you learn how to be an effective manager?
I spent the first 20 years of my career trying to answer this question.
And my mentors, who have run the largest companies on the planet, taught me this.
The best managers love their people AND are able to get results.
Most managers are either loved by their people (since they’re not being held accountable) or they are good at getting results. But rare is the manager who can do both.
Consider what you need to do in being one of these rare managers, which is the foundation of any successful business.
