                                                                               I meet many people in the 5 quadrant,
                                                                           the specialists or small business owners,
                                              who would like to expand, but they simply lack leadership skills. No one
                                              wants to follow them. The employees do not trust their leader or the leader
                                              does not inspire the employees to better themselves.
                                                 As mentioned earlier, Forbes defined a big-business owner, a B quadrant
                                              business owner, as a person who controls a business with more than 500
                                              employees. This definition is why leadership skills are vital for the B
                                              quadrant.
                                                 Where could you find a business that will invest the time in your

                                              answer is: most network-marketing businesses.
                                                 Building a B quadrant business is not an easy task. 50 you need to ask
                                              yourself, "Do I have what it takes? Am I willing to go beyond my comfort
                                              zones? Am I willing to be led and willing to learn to lead? Is there a very
                                              rich person inside of me, ready to come out?" If the answer is "Yes;' start
