Key Takeaways1. A successful business is built upon embracing the individuality and authenticity of the employees. When the authenticity of the team is acknowledged, then the business can adapt to the people's needs. Employees have passions and goals and those need to be met if they are going to be happy and driven in the workplace which is imperative to the function and productivity of the company.2. Small businesses can find it difficult to determine when to hire a new team member, but the first question to ask is, "What do I want to offload to someone else?" Start delegating recurring tasks such as a weekly newsletter or smaller projects. Hiring an employee enables the owner to expand the company and work on new, innovative projects. Don't wait until you're maxing your own work capacity limits to get help.3. Kira's advice to her younger self is that you can change your mind, including your job career. Even if you've been in the same work field for a decade or two, life isn't a straight path, nor are you the same person when you started. Leaving or changing doesn't require a "good" reason, you can do whatever you'd like simply because you want to.
