The #Takeoff series is about crowdsourcing issues important to Canadian small businesses. They tell us about their defining moments and we write about their stories, the issues, and strategies for success or how to overcome obstacles.
Next week, we look at a tech company whose CEO at first didn't want to be one.
We asked for advice about what #smallbiz owners should think about when deciding whether to be the #CEO or find someone to do the job. These are some of the responses we got on Twitter.
@GlobeSmallBiz Assess what skills a CEO is truthfully good at, not what is thought or can be learned, and hire for the other skills.
