This is a fascinating story to read. Thank you for sharing your experience, Hudson! I think it’s so awesome that you showed how the failed business effort still resulted in positive growth for you.
I really hope we can have examples soon of some financially successful companies built on similarly positive energy to “Adore.” It sounds like things started going downhill when new management abandoned the core values you all started with. It’s a hard balance to be financially focused and empathy focused.
Thanks! And, agreed. I think it definitely can be done with great leadership. It's been a great lesson for me as well. Even though I don't work on a team anymore, I'm constantly balancing my own values with earning enough to survive. ⚖️
Empathy matters. If employees are not treated well, their morale suffers, and that leads to people slacking off as far as perfomance and or leaving. People won't stay where they aren't valued.
