“Jonathan helped extract me from the trenches of my business. He gave me the information and encouragement to work on building my company. Everything was custom built to suit my particular strengths. We have had a great year so far and stand to have the best year ever in terms of work sold. Plus I have been able to focus on my personal life, and no longer feel like a slave to my trade.”

- Nikos Lynch, Owner

"Jonathan showed me how to balance my life in such a way that my work was not interfering with my family time. With his help, I was able to start the process of putting systems in place that allow me the kind of balance in my life I have been needing. The time I spend with him allows me to step outside of my business so I can take charge of my life."

"I was part of Jonathan's CEO Roundtable for four years. With his help, the group has provided invaluable assistance with my business. Jonathan's insight and amazing business sense provides extremely valuable information and his use of outside-the-box thinking always adds new ideas I would never have thought of. I've never met anyone who knows as much about the gears of business as Jonathan Goldhill.  If you're thinking of joining a group of your peers, I would highly recommend a group run by Jonathan. Believe me, there aren't many that could be any better!"

"What I’ve learned from Jonathan Goldhill is transforming how I approach life in general and business in particular.  I’m becoming more of a CEO and less of a worker bee. His suggestion to make and apply a personal “Not to Do List” in my business has given me several extra days a month to work on the things that really count.”

– John R. Hernandez, Owner

Chris Sugai, Niner Bikes

"Jonathan has consistently come up with great ideas to business issues I have faced over the years. He has also been proactive and gotten things moving in the right direction without my asking. He has a deep rolodex of people to draw from and has more than a few times introduced me to future business or opportunities. I would highly recommend him to others."

June 2004 Are You A Strategic Or Tactical Business Owner?

I am on a crusade to re-educate and re-focus business owners/managers to lead more, work less, and enjoy greater freedom, financial success and happiness. In short, trying to get owners and managers to think and act strategically and effectively.

Too many owners/managers are gifted technicians but not very effective as strategic leaders. If you are not leading in your business, who is? If you are not being strategic, who is? If you are not proactive, who is? To find out if you are you a strategic business owner, ask yourself the following questions:

• Do I see the big picture and have a long-term view?
• Do I think more like a CEO than an employee?
• Do I create a yearly business plan?
• Is my leadership purposeful, proactive, and planning-based?
• Do I constantly think about the direction and objectives of the business?
• Do I focus on the entire business and not just the technical work of my business?
• Have I created plans, procedures and policies to help operate your company?
• Have I developed and documented all our key business processes?
• Do I utilize the leverage of marketing to grow my business?
• Do I spend more time on important matters rather than trivial/urgent matters?
• Have I created a systems-dependent business instead of an owner-dependent business?
• Do I conduct one-on-one monthly coaching sessions with my managers and/or key employees?
• Do I avoid getting buried in the day-to-day details and headaches of the business?
• Have I shaped my business more by design than by default?

If you answered “no” to most of these questions, you are operating as a tactical, reactive business owner. You could benefit greatly from becoming a strategic business owner (SBO). In short, a strategic business owner gets the highest and best return possible for his time, money and effort. He/she focuses on working smarter, not harder.
