Time, flexibility, freedom. These are the things Katie Lance, founder and CEO of Katie Lance Consulting, was craving as she trusted her wings and went out on her own.
Like many entrepreneurs, once she started to dream of what her business could be, it began to take on a life of its own. Evening and personal hours were spent imagining, planning and preparing to take the leap of faith into entrepreneurship. So even a seemingly small thing like buying her first office desk, or designing a business card, became a practical step toward materializing her vision.
“You start refining more and more. Who you are, who you’re not, who you serve and who you don’t, and really niching down about who you want to work with.”
Katie’s husband Paul taught her an important lesson about the power of being direct. Instead of letting issues fester, she’s learned to pick up the phone and talk through things. ”In the past, I always feared confrontation, but in the last few years, I’ve gotten more confident and have started to clear the air quickly and find a better way to communicate.” We often underestimate the power of face to face or voice to voice communication, to ensure we can solve problems with our humanity.
