by Kevin Faber, founder of Silver Summit Capital. Investing in employees can be a very beneficial and all-around positive experience for everyone involved. Ideally, employers get far more productivity and less expenses such as interpersonal conflicts, miscommunication and turnover.

Remember when you were a team of one? Maybe you still are… Let’s assume your company has grown since then, but since YOU were the business, much of how things got done was based on your preferences, beliefs and actions.
