 Business leaders have a substantial impact on the performance of their employees, but their responsibilities can make it hard to effectively drive high-quality performance. Managers are responsible for ensuring team success, creating a positive atmosphere and solving complex problems among others. These varied responsibilities can quickly become unbalanced and a sudden shift in the market could take leaders' attention away from their teams. These can then lead to a drop in productivity. Leaders can stabilize their own resources by adopting various leadership styles. On the show today, we will focus on boosting employee performance through organizational leadership. Welcome to Business Insights in Plos TV Africa. I am Justin Acadone. For staff, more often than not, businesses are fixated on growth. However, expert attacks and entrepreneurs on audits to ensure healthiness of their ventures. These came up on the sidelines of the LIM simple strategy growth conference which held in Lagos. Details in this report. Not conducting regular health checks at business can have severe consequences, which can lead it to lack behind the competition instead of dominating. At this conference, the focus is on getting useful strategies to ensure a healthy business and growth. Author and entrepreneur Ezekia Solesi, who wants participants not only to network or get inspired, believes that understanding of the macroeconomy as well as strategy is paramount. For example, what happens is that most people think about business growth and they're really thinking about growth at any cost is good. But cancer is growth, right? You could grow to death. The idea here is to make sure that as we're growing, we're positioning, we're auditing, we're making sure that we're actually healthy. What 70% of entrepreneurs developing from the street, there is need for caution. As experts say, their survival can be measured after they have survived 10 years. The guide for any businessman, knowing for the world that no matter what you do, no matter how much you have in your bank account, you must have the 10-year strategy in mind. Five years, 90% of the business that start would die. And then the 10 that survives go through another five years. And then 90% of the 10 will also die. That means under a business that starts, only one will survive after 10 years. The first thing is the mindset to know that whatever happens in the economy, your business can thrive. And then the second thing is to go out there and find the knowledge, find the strategy and be courageous enough to execute on whatever ease you found. As some business is gasped for survival, other strategists advise entrepreneurs to have a successor plan while envisioning the future of their ventures. What is your plan for that business? So I think that it's important that people begin to think about it long-term. Yes, sometimes we're looking at the situation and then there's this mentality of founder, owner, chairman. You know, I want to be the founder. You can still be the founder, but not necessarily run the business. So some doctors, you know, you could be a doctor, you are a surgeon. Doesn't mean you have what it takes to run a hospital. You must have an administrator. First of all, look at the areas you thought or the areas you didn't do well. That is where to start from. Build on those ones and upgrade. Then the ones that are already working, those ones are just the water. More like give it a breath of life and, you know, it will keep growing. And this is where the healthy business comes in. Every business has an evolution time or different demands for different places. However, to achieve results, experts say it has to look at execution of key priorities, including building capacities and individual effectiveness of their team.
