A few years ago we were on holiday on the Hawaiian islands. A conference was held at the hotel. At breakfast, a man and a woman from this conference sat at our table. We talked with them. She appeared to be a representative of some foundation from Vancouver, and he owns a business from Switzerland.
I asked, “What is the difference between an entrepreneur and a big company manager?”
The lady began to explain: “Well, there is virtually no difference. That businessman, that the president of the company solve organizational, financial issues. Often the owner is the president.
The man listened and added, "The difference is little, only about three percent of the time..."
“Explain me please.“I asked
“For twenty-nine days a month, the owner and the manager really do the same thing. But one day, every worker, from the cleaner to the president, thinks about how to spend the money received today. And the owner of the company thinks about where to get the money to pay employees.”
