Summary
Why can’t you do your calling in your current business?
Today’s guest, Tana Greene, was asked this question by her coach when considering leaving her business due to a lack of fulfillment. What Tana learned was that when you understand who you are and what your values are, your business will align accordingly. In order to make sure that every new employee knows their strengths, which in turn helps the company, Tana requires every employee take the Strength Finder test upon hire.
