You have your financial statements. But do you actually know what to do with them?
Most of us were taught to check our numbers after the month is already over. That's the moment I want to change for you.
In this episode, I walk through the four ways business owners make decisions and why most of us default to reacting instead of planning. I share the three shifts I use in my own business. Two of them are about your numbers: using them instead of just knowing them, and looking ahead instead of only looking back. The third is about your role, moving from expert to CEO. I also break down the four roles every money team needs and share what happened when one of our clients built her ten year vision and finally felt confident enough to hire.
In this episode of CEO Numbers Network, I break down why your budget alone isn't enough to guide your decisions.
You will learn the four decision making styles I see most often, plus the three shifts that move you from reactive to strategic. I also walk through the four roles you need on your money team.
If you have ever made a big decision off pure gut instinct or panicked after one bad month, this episode will help you build a process you can actually trust.
