Stop Guessing, Start Growing: A Scientific Approach to Business
We know that being a business owner is not for the faint of heart. It’s hard work that requires you to be smarter today than you were yesterday. Add to this the never-ending stress associated with having everything you own tied up in your business, which can feel overwhelming.
One way to make business ownership feel less overwhelming is to use mental models and frameworks to help apply business laws and principles to business problems. Fortune 100 executives do this in leading their multi-billion-dollar corporations.
The key to using any mental model is to never force-fit a particular framework or model to solve your business problems. The better approach is the data-driven approach grounded in business science versus a consultant’s craft. Scientists set aside opinions, perspectives, and assumptions until they have concrete evidence to back them up. As such, a business scientist will never rely on opinions or assumptions to make knowledgeable theories, whereas business consultants do this all the time because it’s easier.
