“
POSSIBLY THE MOST important aspect of a successful
cannabis business, after product, is networking.”
• Ability to Recognize Shortcomings: This is a key component to all
successful leaders. Self-awareness is of utmost importance to all
leading styles. If you feel you cannot do this without bias, work
towards the solution you are most comfortable with. The most
popular options are: hiring employees to fill in your weak areas;
partnering with someone who has complementary skills; and
seeking an outside consultant to help identify and solve prob-
lems with you as a team.
The list above provides a jumping-off point for planning and
beginning your business. As we all see the great potential in our
industry, we must lay the foundation on solid business practices
as well as take a unique position of openness to pivoting with
constant political, regulatory, and market changes. Unique industry
planning cannot be underestimated or overlooked.
