basketball coach, John Wooden once said, "It's what you learn after you know it all that counts." If you focus on growing your employees, they will be more capable of growing your organization. You might be asking, "Why I should train my employees if I'm just going to lose them to another company." I've found there is one thing worse than training your employees and losing them, and that's not training them and keeping them! There are several ways that you can continue to develop, educate, and grow your employees such as; allowing them to take night classes at a local college, give them books, send them to conferences, purchase DVD training sets, and the easiest of them all is to teach them what you know. Make it a point to take someone from your organization out to lunch every week for a "learning lunch" where you both bring a notepad and paper and teach each other things. You have to eat lunch anyway, so you might as well eat it with someone at your company who can help you grow your business.

I hope these three business management practices gave you some ideas on how you can manage your business better, because I believe if you work harder than your employees, develop solid relationships with them, and focus on growing them, they will help you to grow your business.
