CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO (KFVS) -
From our recent
presidential election to concerns about the fiscal cliff, small businesses and
their owners are in the Washington spotlight right now.
And that's not a bad thing
according to the two business owners who shared their knowledge with students
Thursday at Southeast Missouri State.
Southeast graduate Dan
Mohorc and Cape Girardeau business owner Derek Cornelius talked about how they
got their companies started, as part of Southeast's Global Entrepreneurship
Week.
"The more focus you
put on the small business owner, they are the ones who are going to be creating
th jobs, and really have a lot of the passion," said Cornelius. "They
are going to be local, instead of being part of a large international corporation.
I think that's a benefit."
"I think the best
thing I can do is, keep the politics out of our company," said Mohorc.
"I try to encourage our employees to not talk politics out in the office.
Let's do what we need to do. That's taking care of our customers and our client
base."
Both men shared the
importance of faith and family, along with the ability to share their
philosophy with employees to keep their companies strong.
