The Hard Conversations Business Owners NEED to be having

Season #2

What are the hard conversations business owners are avoiding? 

This week, Chris and Lucie interview Nicky Billou, a bestselling author and entrepreneur, to talk about the hard conversations most business owners aren’t having – and what happens when they don’t.   Nicky shares his passion for entrepreneurship and shares a story of a business partnership that didn’t work out and how it resulted in the loss of a friendship.  He also shares about running a business with a romantic partner and a new way to thinking about sales. This week, we cover:

  •  Difficult conversations can lead to better business outcomes if handled properly.
  •  Maintaining boundaries in personal and business relationships is crucial.
  •  Partnerships should be based on clear expectations and mutual respect.
  •  Sales should be reframed as an act of service rather than a transaction.
  •  Self-belief is vital for success and everyone needs someone to believe in them.
  •  Sometimes difficult conversations won’t have a positive outcome.

Nicky is the author of the books: Finish Line Thinking™: How to Think and Win Like a Champion, The Thought Leader’s Journey: A Fable of Life, and The Power Of Connecting: How To Activate Profitable Relationships By Serving Your Network. A two-time New York Times bestselling author, he is an in-demand and highly inspirational speaker to corporate audiences such as RBC, Lululemon, Royal LePage, and TorStar Media. He is an advisor and confidante to some of the most successful and dynamic entrepreneurs in Canada. He is the founder of eCircle Academy (www.eCircleAcademy.com) where he runs a yearlong Mastermind & Educational program working with Coaches, Consultants, Corporate Trainers, Clinic Owners, Realtors, Mortgage Brokers and other service-based Entrepreneurs, positioning them as authorities in their niche. 

He also hosts the #1 podcast in the world on Thought Leadership, The Thought Leader Revolution.
