The Real Foundation Of Brand Success Is The Team
&pizza founder Michael Lastoria’s advice to entrepreneurs: businesses are built by employees, not ideas
TRANSCRIPT:
I believe wholeheartedly, and my apology to all the entrepreneurs in the room, but businesses are built on the shoulders of its employees, not from the magical genius of our ideas. I believe in ideas, certainly an important starting place. A business doesn’t happen if someone doesn’t have an idea. Businesses actually thrive or fail because of the people within it.
