Startup

(Comic) In Scope for Entrepreneurs

What line of sight does a new business owner need? Deep into the weeds? Or out far in the horizon?

With a microscopic lens, an entrepreneur can look at what is working in his/her business, and what can be improved with the processes and the employees. The day-to-day minutiae for new founders require attention initially.  A CEO of a startup recently shared that staying attune to the small details gives her the confidence to sell her value proposition to potential clients.

With a telescopic lens, an entrepreneur can assess the vision for the future.  Sculpting, molding and envisioning the long run for the company, will inspire your employees and motivate them towards goals.  A startup founder I recently chatted with, explained that it his visions what differentiates his company from the competition.

Ironically, the best entrepreneurs need a microscope to do telescopic things, and use a telescope to do microscopic things.

Are you a telescopic or microscopic founder? Let us know the details in the comments below.

  7. One has to be alert on both.In chess we talk about Tactics and Strategy. While each move we make is Tactical the goal of the game has to be Strategic.
