Capitalism for Good - Between the Interviews
It’s been so interesting to listen to all these leaders speak. I just wrapped up Interview #17 about a half hour ago. And much like the 16 before her, Sami talks about the people that made a profound impact on her and her ability to be where she is now. The people that keep a company running on a daily basis seems to be a prominent theme thus far in the interviews with business leaders. It’s obvious really, that without employees to keep things running, a business can’t function. If we dig a little deeper though, it seems to be more than just bodies in seat filling roles. It’s truly valuing the employees that make up a team and leveraging the skills and talents of the people in a way that’s fulfilling for all. Shannon said - if you need something, just ask. And talked about Lindsey is in business with her sister and has her to lean on. As do Jeff & Randy of STL Style. Whitney started a business with her best friend. I lean on those in my circle all the time. Sami & Greg talk about partnering with charities and giving back to communities through their apparel companies. Keith owns a company based on only selling products made by the people in his community. Marissa talks about the importance of the local farmers they get their food from and how supporting people in rural cities does wonders for their local communities. Kyle, Emma, Kate all founded companies that are dedicated to improving the global community. Whitney gave a million shout outs including at least one that we’ll hear from in the future. Wade name dropped his employees and joked about how they’re nicer and more loved than he is. Veronica talked about when she meets with people about advertising, she takes the time to understand them and their goals. In fact, everything she’s doing and learning seems to be led by uplifting the people. Connor built his whole expansive career in so many different fields, including I think more that he didn’t even mention, on connecting with other people and working hard to learn more. Josh puts people and what’s right before business. Cathy has pivoted to focusing her business on laughter wellness, which I attended today and can truly vouch for how great of a community she’s building there. It’s so heartwarming. It’s easy to get a little tunnel vision sometimes, but it’s so important to be connected to the people. Take the time to prioritize your people. Whether you are in business or a customer of business. Consider the people. Need help? Reach out to your people.
