I hate to be the one to break it to you, but if your kids are still living at home at the age of 40 – it is likely not their fault. It's yours! Neither is it the fault of your employees in business, if they are completely incapable of making a decision without you! In parenting we call it tough love; in business it is called empowerment, but they are quite similar.
I overheard an executive making a call to one of her subordinates. She was communicating that a CEO, apparently important to their business, was going to be in town. This executive wanted the subordinate to be present during the meet with the CEO. The executive provided the usual details regarding time and location, but then she instructed this person on what to wear!
Sure, there is a chance they will show up wearing a wife-beater and rubber boots, or their prom dress from the 80s – but that isn't that how we learn?
