Lessons Learned
- What's the biggest mistake you've made?
- What's the toughest decision?
- What's the most important lesson you learned ...?
So I've decided to create a blog series and answer these questions from the perspective of lessons I've learned over the years. It starts with my last "real" job and goes through the sale of my last managed IT service business.
I hope all business owners, especially those new to IT consulting, will learn from my mistakes (and maybe from my wins). And, as always, I would love to have your feedback in the comments.
If you have specific questions that you think would fit in the series, please send them. I'll try to fit them in the series where they make the most sense.
This Page was created as an evolving index of the series, so you can find articles quickly.
