The levels we need to work through to gain more leverage:
- Worker/Startup
- Practitioner/Self-employed
- Independent Entrepreneur
- Entrepreneur
- Freedom-preneur
- Global Business Leader
What do you think about Monty Hooke’s take on “The Line of Leverage” between #3 and #4?
I’m not sure all those individual levels exist, to be honest. However, what I found most interesting was the suggestion to define whether you’re a detail person (technician) or a star (people person). And how those two personalities can often clash, particularly with overseas outsourcing, where language barriers and cultural differences can make a difficult project even more so.
Share any tips you have for being an effective outsourcer.
