0 h 56 Min

"I can't chop the path and sit in the tree at the same time."

If you are an entrepreneur, then you know the following scenarios only too well. In your company, you are faced with a daily jungle of specialist and entrepreneurial tasks. If you get caught up in operational tasks instead of concentrating on the further development of the company, you risk serious consequences for yourself and the company's success. Stefan Merath knows what to do. He is an entrepreneur coach and author and knows the right tools to cut through the thicket of the corporate jungle.

"Find a job that makes you happy and success will come almost automatically."

In this SMP LeaderTalk, he talks to Georgiy Michailov about how important it is to differentiate between specialist, manager and entrepreneur. With vivid images and examples, he explains why it is so important to work on the company, rather than in the company, and why luck is often the key to long-term success.

"Teamflow is the top combination of productivity, happiness and fulfillment."

The two talk about how to overcome fears with so-called courage tasks, how Merath created the “black belt entrepreneur” based on his martial arts experience and why teamflow is the ultimate goal of every successful business.
