2. Employee motivation, a path for growth, and a flexible family work environment also build the strength of a small, family-oriented company.

3. Turnover is not necessary a bad thing. So it is important to get the bad employees out of the company so that they do not destroy your company.

4. An employee handbook is one of the first introductions that an employee will have to the general policies and procedures in a company. Make sure your employee handbook gives clear and precise guidelines on expectations from your employees. Most large companies or businesses should have an employee management committee or a human resources department.
