The first report in a financial statement is the Balance sheet. Most people skip over the balance sheet and go straight to the Profit and loss statement. The Balance sheet is a significant report to understand the health of any business, and it is the only financial report affected by every transaction in a company. If a transaction happens it always has an effect on the balance sheet. Financial institutions will often use the balance sheet to see how much available cash a company has and compare it to the liabilities to determine if they will approve any loan. If anyone is trying to determine the company's value and health, they will start with the balance sheet.

Warren Buffet says that accounting is the language of business. So to run a successful business, do you think you should learn the language of business? Imagine watching an (American) football game, and you did not understand the language or how to read the score. You did not understand what a touchdown was or that the quarterback was even a person. You would have no idea who was winning or losing, and you would not know what was going on.

Some Business owners run their business and hope that the number in their bank account is bigger than the bills coming in. If it is not, they pour more time and energy into their business. They work harder as if they were not already busting their butts.

Once you can understand the language of business and read a financial statement, you will know if you are winning or losing. You will see opportunities and strategies to execute and measure your strategies' effectiveness.

Check out our course for business owners looking to read and understand their business numbers.

As a business owner, you must develop a vibrant and healthy culture within your organization. You can have the best strategy in the world, or invent the next great world changing technology, but without the right team culture, you will never execute that strategy with any level of efficiency. According to Satya Nadela, the CEO of Microsoft, "as a leader it is critical that you do 3 things. You must Model, Mentor, and Care."

Be a role model.

People will not follow someone that does not live by a strong set of values. Your team will not follow someone they do not respect. For example, if you gossip about a family member, that speaks to your character and what you represent.

Take time to Mentor.

A lot of business owners say they do not have the time to train their people. They are "too busy". This statement may feel true. I get it. I hear it all the time. "What if I spend all this time training them and they quit?" Well, what if you never train them and they stay? You need to believe that you can improve the life of any person that spends time with your company; that they will develop and grow because of the time they spent with you.

Care.

You need to care about your team. This may be the hardest one for some, but argueably the most important. Yes, it could make running a business complicated, but you need to care about your people. As a business owner, you want loyalty from your team and you want to develop trust. Yet, you are not willing to say "thank you", or "hey, awesome job today." You need to do this, genuinely, from your heart. People will know the authenticity of your caring not just by your words. It cannot be measured, but it can surely be felt. Put the team first and care about them; they will in turn care about you and the company.

Your business is your life. If you hire people, you have made them a part of your life. Make it a place, where people wake up in the morning and cannot wait to be a part of. Make it a place you love to go to everyday. That at this company, you are in the company of those who care.
