Red Flags in People February 16th, 2025 by Bill Boyajian |
If you’ve ever wondered why certain people hit your hot buttons, frustrate you, or make you want to retreat from their presence, consider these “red flags.” 1) They criticize and complain. 2) They are constantly defensive. 3) They don’t respect boundaries. 4) They live by a double standard. 5) They seek power over influence. 6) You feel uncomfortable in their presence. 7) They are never happy for you or with you. 8) They talk about themselves and their issues. 9) You get deflated when you interact with them. These aren’t happy people, so seek those who are at peace with themselves, find joy in even the small things, and live a life of respecting people.

“I needed help orchestrating a succession plan for our business. I had heard that Bill Boyajian specialized in assisting owners to transition their business to the next generation. He knows how to bridge the generation gap and deliver what each needs to hear. I would recommend Bill to any business owner who needs advice on succession planning from a trusted outside professional.”

"Our family needed some guidance on business transition and succession planning. We asked Bill Boyajian to help us because we knew we could trust him to tell us what we needed to hear. Bill became a valuable resource for our company and our entire family. He has the ability to meet each of us where we’re at and it has served us very well."

“We needed a plan to transition our business to a non-family member and we asked Bill Boyajian to help us. His experience in the area has really paid off, but we didn’t expect the added value of putting us together with a financial planner who helped organize our retirement needs. We now have the fundamentals to transition our business successfully, and we have Bill to thank for it.”
