Thank you @ZweigGroup for featuring my article about rethinking the annual performance review in this week’s #TheZweigLetter.

[Zweig Group @ZweigGroup]

President of @AMKingGroup, @briantking1, advises us to rethink the annual performance review process. "Instead, consider regular performance discussions, & an annual strategy meeting to set, implement, & evaluate goals & initiatives," Brian shares in #TZL https://t.co/TiqACmWzwQ

According to @USDepartmentof8 20% of US #SmallBusinesses fail in first year, by year five 50% have failed, by year ten only 1/3 have survived.

My detailed research indicates that 100% of small businesses that never start are failures.

92% of CEO’s at Fortune 500 companies are males. Wondering how many of these men would tell you they credit their “wise and wonderful mothers for all their success”. Time for some changes in the business world. #WomeninBusiness

Sometimes all it takes to get comfortable with discomfort is confidence. A way to build this is to reflect on your past accomplishments. Look at where you were five years ago compared to now. What are you most proud of? Celebrate the small wins.

[Brian T. King @briantking1]

Key to success— unwavering focus. Whether it becomes a five-year plan or an annual goal, concentrate on what you truly want to achieve and accomplish. Make sure it is very specific, achievable, measurable — and in writing.

There's an immense amount of power in going beyond personal responsibility into servant leadership and trying to understand what you can do to benefit others within your business circle. And once you get to that point, it's almost impossible not to succeed.https://t.co/y01vF752Ws

Business is a people game.

"Business is always personal."

Had a blast talking with business coaches Nick and Josh on the latest #truthseekers podcast where we discussed specific success principles that have served me well throughout my entrepreneurial journey.

Leadership Quick Tips:

1. Create a safe environment. Allow your team to express their opinions and ideas without judgment.

2. Don’t take disagreement personally. Be open to seeing different perspectives from others.

[Brian T. King @briantking1]

Taking pride in your work is one of the most important things you can do for your career. But it requires discipline, focus and a passion for what you do.

The only way to stay in the game is to get ahead of it.

If you can't control something, focus on how you respond.

[Brian T. King @briantking1]

One of the most important lessons every executive must learn is to never underestimate the impact of their words and actions on their employees.

[Brian T. King @briantking1]

Executives set the tone within an organization. More importantly, how they respond to employee interactions will determine how well these individuals perform their jobs, treat others, or and even their decision to remain with the company or seek other employment.

[Brian T. King @briantking1]

It is often when we are at our most vulnerable that we discover our greatest ideas, develop our best solutions and implement the most significant changes in our lives. Don’t fear your vulnerability.
