In business management, striking a balance is very important. And for business owners, it is important to strike a balance between being firm and being warm/ friendly with your staff.

What practical measures can you do to take to have that balance as you manage staff in your business?

I think that is a very crucial thing. Therefore the business managers should apply the team building tactics and being loyal at uniting the workers to arrive at one accord

I think it would be best to set rules and regulations, and let them understand that you do not take those who refuse to obey these rules and regulations lightly. This way you can be friendly but firm when they fail to follow.

To maintain a balance between being friendly and firm between business owners and employees, it is necessary to avoid too close association between business owners and employees, in addition, business owners must also apply ethics.

I think the business owner should generally take a friendly disposition by default. They then seriously set boundaries for that friendliness.
