When Caitlin Kalinowski was leading development of Apple’s cylindrical computer, the Mac Pro, she had to juggle a multitude of clashing perspectives. “The industrial design team wanted the device to have a really small diameter. But that meant a small diameter on the heat sink… When the heat sink was small, more air had to be pulled through to cool the central processing unit (CPU), making it louder. Yet still we needed the computer to be quiet,” says the current product design engineering director for Oculus. “The way to solve this problem was to let each team completely own its best-case scenario. There were separate teams inside Apple focused on optimizing for small diameter, focusing on keeping the noise down, worrying about the heat transfer — we just let each one own that and drive as hard for their goal as they possibly could. For the thermal team, since this is a high performance machine, we needed the CPU performance as unlocked as possible, and so we let them fight for that. Then the audio team made sure the fan noise didn’t cross a certain threshold. Let everyone work on the best possible outcome for the feature for which they’re responsible, and you’re likely to end up making the best product trade-offs — and that means a better product.”

Given that you cannot live long without money and that your new business will not become profitable from the beginning, it is preferable to start in business while you still have a job and a stable source of income. This will give you a form of comfort and will help you focus on the vital aspects of business development and not just on providing some money for your own survival. Once the business starts to become profitable and you take on more and more time, you can resign. The existence of a support system both during the start-up period and during its development is very important. Try to find support within your family and consult with them when you want to make decisions and need advice. Ideally, you should find a mentor to offer you from his experience. To do this, you could register your business idea in one of the training and consulting programs implemented through European funds such as Entrepreneur 2.0.
Truly listen and empathize with your clients. Everyone is so interested in getting their own personal message across, that no one pauses for a moment to actually listen and hear the root of the problem or pain. Believe in listening 80% of the time, clarifying 10% of the time, and responding wholeheartedly and intentionally, is the remaining 10% of the time. – Stephynie Malik, ChiqueSpeak Source: https://theentrepreneurresearch.com/.
