Do you know your most important number?
Numbers make or break you. Ask any bankrupt business or successful startup and they’ll both agree, numbers don’t lie. Unfortunately, most teams focus on too many numbers or the wrong numbers or maybe no numbers at all!
Author Lee Benson knows numbers. He grew his business from 3 employees to 500 with 15 consecutive years of 20 percent compounded average annual growth. Friends and families asked for his secret. He told them it came down to Your Most Important Number.
Jack Welch, the former CEO of General Electric and ‘Manager of the Century’ raved about Lee’s MIND methodology (Most Important Number and Drivers). Welch said, ‘It is the best business management operating system I have ever seen. Had I used it when running General Electric, our results would have been exponentially better.’ Because you can’t scale complexity, the power lies in its simplicity.
