As a leader and a business owner, it is our responsibility to create a safe space for our people. In this episode, Founder and CEO Dr Angela Lauria of The Author Incubator, named to multiple lists of Top 500 Small Businesses in America, shares this valuable reminder that she emphasizes in her book Make 'Em Beg To Work For You. 

Key points covered in this episode:

(00:00): Welcome to Barrels and Business!

(00:14:26): To reach the next level of evolution, bring the divine feminine in and learn to receive. Angela recognizes how men have led the way in business for so long, yet she believes that we cannot bring old and male-centric practices into the future.

(00:20:05): Serve the seven human needs of an employee if you truly want to make them productive and profitable. Businesses often forget that people's happiness is the greatest factor for success. 

 (00:45:09) Stop treating your virtual or remote teams like an app. Jade Greene reminds owners & managers that you can't just press the button, and your people will spit out quality work. 

(00:48:01) The number one customer in your business is your team.

(00:51:00) There are hot employers out there in every industry of every size. And if you want someone to beg to work for you, you have to at least a little bit want to be awesome. Become so valuable by focusing on your growth as a professional.

(01:21:07) As a company, you have to make a stand for a cause... even if it creates controversy.

(01:37:06) Love your employees as much as you love your clients.

(01:48:53) Have a hiring process, not an unconscious bias.

(01:51:36) Identify the win-win and make sure the compensation is aligned to meet the goals.

(02:05:07) There's no external exercise that you can do that will make up for the internal work that your employees will feel every day.
