"Many entrepreneurs feel that a business owner should be in a position to leave day-to-day activities in the hands of his/her managers and employees - while pursuing other interests... and while his business is still making a profit AND his profits are protected at the same time during his absence." - Michiel Jonker

This cartoon illustrates a business owner who has adequate business strategies and systems in place, providing him with the needed assurance that his personnel have the necessary guidelines (policies, procedures and standards) as well as training to manage ALL situations (including events that could affect his business and profits negatively) - even in his absence!
