subject: No One Succeeds Alone [print this page] In this chapter, I'll take a look at all those people (besides your customers and family) who are fundamental in helping you succeed. First, I'll examine the folks who comprise your in-house support group, your employees, and how you should handle them. In the second half of the chapter, I'll discuss those people outside the company who can actively help you succeed, including mentors and MasterMind participants, joint venture partners, suppliers, and vendors. I'll wrap up the chapter with a discussion of delegation and outsourcing, the most commonly-used methods for leveraging other people's efforts in order to get work done.
