The Daily Drucker 
is one of my favorite books. It sits on my desk and I try to read it every day. Since I will be traveling at the end of this week, I was reading ahead today. The entry for September 4th is "Practices of Effective Executives". I feel these practices underscore the need for having business systems, written goals, efficiency vs. effectiveness, and other topics that I like to write about on this blog. Because I work with small business owners, I took the liberty of changing "executives" to "business owners".
Effective Business Owners:
- Know where their time goes
- Focus on outward contributions
- Build on strengths - theirs and others
- Concentrate on superior performance
- Make effective decisions
How many of these practices are incorporated into your daily routine? Which one are you going to start working on today?
