302 Are you The Boss, The Manager or The Leader of Your Salon?

from Grow My Salon Business Podcast · host Antony Whitaker

In today’s episode, I want to get real about something that many salon owners don’t like to hear… your team problems might not be about your team. They might actually be about you and your style of leadership.We talk about the difference between being “the boss” and being a true leader. Because if you want loyalty, innovation, trust, and long-term commitment from your people, barking orders or crossing your fingers and hoping for the best won’t cut it. This episode is about finding the balance, between control and chaos, between command and collaboration. It's about stepping into leadership so you can build a salon culture that attracts and retains the right people and brings your vision to life.IN THIS EPISODE:[01:33] Boss, manager, leader or just owner?
