Don’t Train Your Future Competitor

Are your employees loyal? How loyal? Be careful as you hire, train, and assign your employees as you may simply end up training them to be your future competitors.

Be sure that you protect your business by having employees sign non-disclosure agreements and contracts with non-compete clauses. Talk to your lawyer so that you will have the contracts ready before any hiring takes place.

Stay involved in your company. Many employers simply let the technical staff take care of the clients and if the staff leaves, so do the clients. Make sure your clients are loyal to you rather than your staff by taking part in the sales and service delivery processes.

Remember if your employees aren’t loyal, all those trainings you send them to are simply creating your biggest competitor.
