Will You Be My Valentine? - A Special Valentine's Edition of My 2 Cents

14/02/2024

Opinion of the Advisory Principal Gianfranco Miranda

Valentine's Day is on the horizon! Presents, parties, and precious moments with loved ones or cherished friends – it's a celebration of love for the things that bring us joy and contribute to our growth each day. In the spirit of this occasion, let's explore the idea: is your business your valentine?

💝Will you be my valentine?

Have you ever pondered whether your business could be your valentine?

In this unique relationship, you may find moments of giving your all, yet occasionally feeling that what you receive isn't precisely what you anticipated. It's time to recognize that, much like personal relationships, your business partnership will have its share of challenges, setbacks, and failures, but also moments of celebration and hope.

Remember, it's not about what you receive; it's about what you give. Devoting time to your business is driven by your passion for seeing it thrive, not just for monetary gain.

💼What present are you going to give your business tonight?

What gift will you offer your business tonight? A strategic investment? More quality time for your team or perhaps a well-deserved raise?

Maybe it's time to give your all without expecting immediate returns. The love you invest in your business will be reciprocated over time.

🌟Valentine’s Day plea:

This Valentine's Day, skip the usual pizza party or HR packages. Instead, provide your team with love, mental health, and unwavering support. Your business is not just a venture; it's a collective dream that you and your team are building together.

So, to all the founders out there:

If you are up for the ride, embrace it. Your business, like any relationship, needs love, care, and understanding. Happy Valentine's Day, dear founders!

🤍🖤

With love,

Gianfranco Miranda
