He said, “A new business is like a baby. So, for it to grow, it has to be treated as such.”
He stressed the need to create a positive corporate culture among employees by involving them in decision-making, ensuring work ethics, assigning responsibilities to each employee, and ensuring the delegation of authority as the case may be.
