76 - Family business, personal leadership, and more with Nike Anani
Manage episode 293773481 series 2794743
Even if your business isn’t a family business, you need to hear from Nike Anani. Nike is a consultant, family business therapist at times, and one of the top 100 Family Business Consultants in the world.
A few of the things we loved:
- How are you being in your business is a much more important question than what are you doing in your business.
- You don’t emerge as a leader, you practice it.
- You don’t emerge as a visionary, you practice it.
We laughed, we had “wow!” moments, and we got off track in all the best ways. We can’t think of a better way to finish up our third season than with this conversation.
Nike shares why she moved back to Nigeria after spending most of her life in London, how working with her dad in the family business changed her in ways she never expected, and what we can all learn from family businesses and how they exist in the world (hint: in Nike’s experience, they’re very rarely focused on profit-over-all.)
Key concepts:
- Clarity Communication Collaboration: Nike’s 3 Cs for success in family businesses (ahem, or any business or team!)
- Past Present Future: the Past led us to where we are today & it’s important to understand history, we need to work in the Present to guide the future, and we need a vision of the Future to understand what we’re working toward.
