We get down to business in today’s conversation with entrepreneur, author, speaker and business advisor Andrea Belk Olson. In today’s episode we discuss: How Andrea was writing business plans as a teenager, long before she ever took a business course. Andrea’s balance of logic (from her Dad) and artistic creativity (from her Mom) that have served her well in her career. Her love of travel and the favorite place she has visited. Why Andrea believes the art of business is as important as the logic side, but her perspective that too often the logic side runs the show and short changes a lot of ideas that just need incubation time. How she considers her business a “change agency”. The 3 characteristics of leaders she likes to work with: Optimism, Courage, and Joy.
