As an entrepreneur, you likely have the objective that one day you will have a very successful company with employees to help you accomplish your mission. When your company grows your ability to monitor the activities of your employees diminishes. While your direct supervision of all of your employees diminishes their ability to act independently increases.  As your employees develop more authority to act on behalf of your company, there is a corresponding greater chance that someone might act in some negligent way resulting in the physical or financial injury to someone. The legal doctrine of respondeat superior states that an employer may be held legally responsible for the negligent acts of his/her employees while those employees were considered legal agents of the employer or were otherwise acting within the scope of their employ.
