67: Your Business Is Not a Group Project

Too many entrepreneurs give everybody a voice and accidentally give everybody a vote.

Customers have opinions.

Employees have opinions.

Friends have opinions.

Social media definitely has opinions.

But leadership requires knowing when to listen and when to decide.

In Episode 67 of Tagline, Dr. Tonika Bruce explains why gathering input is valuable, how permission seeking can quietly delay business decisions, and why strong leadership requires informed judgment instead of endless consensus.

Monday Challenge: Choose one decision you have been circling. Ask what the facts say, what the customer needs, and what the business needs. Then make the decision.

Listen widely, but lead decisively.
