INSIGHT

Small Business Advantage Over Corporations

Small businesses attract top talent by offering something large firms often miss: meaningful fit and engagement rather than ping-pong perks.
Mike Michalowicz created the FASO model to explain why great people join great companies of any size.

ADVICE

Match Talent To Tasks Not Titles

Match people to tasks that align with their talents instead of forcing them into rigid titles and org charts.
Restructure roles into a flexible web so individuals touch multiple parts of the business where they add value.

Swapping Roles To Fit Strengths

Mike recounted hiring a warm, personable receptionist who struggled with data entry and a salesperson who closed deals but lacked relationship skills.
He swapped their responsibilities so each person worked in areas matching their strengths and both thrived.
