Description

Ernesto shares how growth-minded CEOs can escape burnout and bottlenecks by building self-managing, purpose-driven teams. Drawing from his Million Dollar Machine (MDM) framework, he introduces the concept of actualization—aligning your team through shared purpose to generate unstoppable momentum. With real-world strategies, cultural rituals, and vivid metaphors like the “Kool-Aid factory” and “momentum mountain,” Ernesto challenges outdated leadership models and offers a blueprint for designing high-functioning, autonomous organizations where purpose drives performance.
