Whilst the business world may have moved away from the cliché of ruthless high flyers using underhand tactics to get ahead, there is no doubt that to make it big in business today, professionals still need to have a relativity thick skin. Business owners and those aspiring for entrepreneurial success come up against a plethora of challenges, many of which are unforeseen. To be able to overcome these potential threats, they must have the strength and character to make difficult decisions and move on when things don’t go as expected.

Imperyo, a Watford-based outsourced sales and marketing firm, believes that when it comes to succeeding in business, professionals must be willing to handle adversity and rise up, even when they feel the whole world is against them. The firm believes it to be important to note that whilst some of the world’s most successful entrepreneurs such as Richard Branson and James Dyson make success look easy, delving into their backgrounds will soon reveal that they struggled just like everyone else and that their success has stemmed from the strength and beliefs they possessed.

Imperyo are firm believers that tough times in business call for tough thinking and have offered some advice to help professionals become more mentally tough:

Aim High

Setting higher standards is the framework for success and ensures a professional carries out their responsibilities in the best way possible. Aiming high conditions a person to always push themselves and teaches them that when things don’t work out, there are other options at their disposal.

Keep it Professional

In small businesses especially, it’s important to have good relationships with staff, peers and associates. However whilst this boosts morale, when it comes to making difficult decisions it can blur a person’s judgement and lead them to make a decision that keeps people ‘on side’ but doesn’t necessarily support the business. Striking a balance between friendly and professional will help a small business owner do right by the business and its people, rather than a select few individuals.

Don’t accept Excuses

As a business owner it’s important to establish respect and authority if they are to steer a company to success. Setting deadlines and showing staff that they don’t stand for poor quality work or tardiness will help business owners to not only create a blueprint of what is expected within the organisation, but will help weed out any individuals who could be bringing down the morale of the team or impacting productivity.
