Everyday as the owner of a business you are reminded of the fact that you are in charge of other people. This also means you are responsible for other people also. As with a lot of authority, there always comes a lot of responsibility<\/a>. The owner of a business has to make sure that his or her employees are working to their absolute best all the time. That\u2019s obviously not going to be able to be done all the time but the notion is clear, work hard for as consistently as possible every working day. With this ethos in mind, it can be easy to forget that your employees have a life outside of work. Since you are running a small business and pressures are consistently high, you are working outside of normal working hours anyway. You don\u2019t get to leave the business at 5pm, you go home and have it on your mind all the time. It can be easy to then expect your employees to behave like you and in subtle ways, force them into replicating your drive and passion. But pushing them too far too often, can end up costing you in more ways than one.<\/p>\n\n\n
