The chance to direct a team and co-ordinate projects can be very challenging, yet rewarding. Burnout also negatively impacts your health. As well, it’s always a good idea to budget more time and resources to a project than you think is necessary to lessen the stress of unexpected setbacks. Put your health first.

I am the owner of a small business myself.

These relationships are for finite projects or to fill a cap, due to permanent staff illness on a temporary basis – they are limited by time or project. Remember, the contractor you hire today, may hire you tomorrow on a project he or she is working on – networking is the way to go. Until then, it is a must.

Project and Order Financing: Banks need to be made to provide the needed finance for SME’s in order to fulfill contracts and orders.
