BUSINESS WISDOM
COURTESY OF STEVE KELLY
“Even when growth arrives and there are more people to
help carry the load, the challenges of running a successful
business never end — never assume you’re going to
have a problem-free future. Embrace the challenges that
appear. You’ll be all the better for it.”
“Change is gradual, and effective change requires real
persistence.”
“Want to know what you need to do and where you need
to go? Listen to your clients.”
