Understanding employees' aspirations, such as wanting to be a CEO, enables tailored feedback. Aligning personal ambitions with company goals motivates better performance.

Over the years, I’ve come across some incredible entrepreneurs whose wisdom has shaped my journey. One of the most influential voices for me has been Carrie Kerpen. Her journey, from co-founding Likeable Media to her current work with The Whisper Group, is full of lessons that every entrepreneur, especially women, can benefit from. Here are a few lessons I’ve learned from Carrie’s insights: 1. 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙄𝙢𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝘽𝙪𝙞𝙡𝙙𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖 𝙏𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙛𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙗𝙡𝙚 𝘽𝙪𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨 Carrie has taught me the value of creating a business that doesn’t rely solely on the CEO’s day-to-day involvement. By building strong systems, delegating effectively, and empowering teams, you can scale your business and make it sellable. This insight has encouraged me to focus on building a sustainable and independent business model. 2. 𝙍𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙣𝙚𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙏𝙧𝙪𝙚 𝙎𝙚𝙡𝙛 Carrie’s TED Talk resonated deeply with me. She spoke about spending years focusing on external validation and how that led her away from her true desires. To get back on track, Carrie reconnected with her values and passions. This has reminded me to always check in with myself and ensure that my goals align with what truly lights me up inside. 3. 𝙉𝙖𝙫𝙞𝙜𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝘽𝙚𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝘼𝙘𝙦𝙪𝙞𝙧𝙚𝙙 Carrie shared the emotional and professional challenges of being acquired. It's not just about the business transition; it’s also about the loss of control and identity.

Focus on key performance indicators (KPIs) like revenue growth, customer loyalty, and profitability. Creating a business that runs smoothly without you at the helm is crucial. This advice has helped me shape my own business with long-term value in mind. 5.
