1) There is something about forming the best company culture or find out how those that are successful in it create it organically. It is due to this fascination that I would make a point not to jeopardize the integrity of whatever company is built simply because I may want to leave. I would ideally like to run the company for as long as I can and later down the line, I would decide if this venture would be something to keep in the family. By then, that would be a family decision.
2) I like the idea of pulling together a business from the ground up that would be beneficial not only to the colleges and companies but also to the students and those working for the company. I would like to ensure that it runs properly to support all those involved for some time before considering a move that could change the trajectory. If I decide to sell later down the line, it will be to someone who holds the same values in their life and own business ventures.
3) Because I am so concerned with the company culture and the servitude nature of strong leadership, I believe that is exactly why I chose to provide a service with a strong backing of organizational culture. I believe I had also outlined above how these interests would prove necessary when considering how I choose to leave as well.
Hey Campbell,
ReplyDeleteI think it is very respectable that you would choose to run your business a little while longer to not jeopardize the company culture you helped build and create. Holding off on selling your company until you find a buyer you know has the same values that you hold is also a very smart business decision in my opinion.
