Not a Business Legacy, It's About People Legacy

This week we're talking about something that's been on my mind for a while: It's not about the business legacy, it's about the people legacy.

Now, that might seem counterintuitive or backward; after all, I'm trying to build a legacy business at Animal Medical Center, and I coach on building businesses as long-term, legacy enterprises. But I think that we sometimes get so hell bent on building a legacy business that we cross boundaries with people, or people get forgotten about altogether.

WE HAVE TO BE FOCUSED ON THE PEOPLE. Legacy people create a legacy business. If we are relentlessly focused on growing, building, coaching, leading, and praying for our people - the legacy people will take care of the legacy business.
