Janitor vs. Manager
My recent visit to Amsterdam sparked a lot of interest, and I received one particularly interesting question that I thought would be great to address here:
Since the windows in Amsterdam’s Red Light District are operated by janitors with keys rather than managers, are managers like me even needed in the business anymore? If managers aren’t necessary there, why should they be needed anywhere else?
From my perspective, Amsterdam is a unique place for very special, highly experienced girls. These are women who don’t need a manager to help them adapt to a new environment, develop their business model, or provide advice on what to improve or focus on. They don’t require help resolving issues with troublesome clients or conflicts among coworkers.
Amsterdam relies on independent, skilled, and experienced women who can handle any situation on their own. That’s great for them—and for me and my colleagues, it’s a relief that there’s only a limited number of girls like that! :)
