What Really Powers a Company Through Tough Times is Action, Not TheoriesIn the business world, knowledge is valuable, but experience is irreplaceable. Many executives rely on education, frameworks, and theories to guide their decisions, but when a company faces real challenges, action, not theory, makes the difference.An MBA may offer insights into business strategy, but it doesn’t prepare leaders for the unpredictability of tough times. Those who have built their own businesses, managed real risks, and navigated financial constraints understand what it takes to survive. The difference? They’ve put their own capital, energy, and effort on the line.So how can leaders sharpen their decision-making skills? One way is by running a business alongside their corporate roles, even if it’s a small, self-funded venture. The challenge of making a business profitable without outside investment forces a leader to focus on what truly matters: cash flow, value creation, and resilience.In this episode of The Daily Hint, we explore why hands-on experience is the best business education. If you want to strengthen your leadership and crisis management skills, put yourself in a position where every decision counts. The best way to learn business? Run one.Listen now and start leading with action.Highlights:00:00 Introduction: The Value of an MBA00:13 Running Your Own Company vs. Theoretical Knowledge00:24 The Essence of Business: Practical Experience00:41 The Real-Life MBA: Building Your Own BusinessLinks:===========================Equipment and Software that I use for my Videos and Podcasts!   Jens Equipment and Software overview: https://www.jensheitland.com/equipment===========================Books that I read and recommend.My Book Recommendations: https://www.jensheitland.com/books===========================Here are the ways to work with me:Speaking: https://www.jensheitland.com/speakingLeadership Skills Assessment: https://www.wearesucceed.com/===========================Connect with me!   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jensheitland/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JensHeitlandofficial/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jensheitland/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jensheitlandX/Twitter: https://twitter.com/jensheitlandNewsletter: https://www.jensheitland.com/newsletter===========================Subscribe and Listen to The Jens Heitland Show Podcast HERE: YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjuSGi1feauCNSER3IKuGWgWeb: https://www.jensheitland.com/podcasthomeApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-jens-heitland-show-human-innovation/id1545043872?uo=4Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7H0GWMGVALyXnnmstYA1NL===========================Subscribe and Listen to The Daily Hint with Jens Heitland Podcast HERE: YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2tLdutVh6b6nCBgWQ817eQWeb: https://www.jensheitland.com/the-daily-hintApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-daily-hint-with-jens-heitland/id1722930497Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4T02uYPvcOrajPC6FgH64r?si=8aab1e7683204160&nd=1&dlsi=0f69c72af017454a
