In the time I’ve spent here at AKT, I am privileged to be part of the executive team.  My position as a co-owner has allowed me to experience pleasant meetings, painful ones, and ones I didn’t even need to be in.  In the last few weeks, there have been many changes that have directly impacted my day to day operations.  I have had to learn not to focus on the small issues but find a solution for the big problems, for the betterment of the company. 

While we are growing at an amazing pace, we must be careful or we may find ourselves in a world of trouble.  I find myself each day asking “should I care about this?” and “is this the best solution for now, or the best solution for the company?” These are two questions that help the overall growth of a business, not just one facet.  

As we continue to bring in more and more clients and business, we must not lose focus of our goal: to do what is the best for the company.

Sometimes, it’s hard to work the few extra hours to make sure something is done right; however, those extra hours are usually what’s best for the company. As you grow, you must ask yourself whether your goal is to win a few small battles or to win the war.
