• Why a business owner’s job is to cut through the chaos and lead themselves and their team to a place of less stress
• Brett relates a story of taking his wife and eight kids fishing at a mountain lake and the frustration of no fish biting, and he shares how this parallels running a business.
• How to turn a chaotic and disorganized company into a well-organized, coordinated, and efficient business
• Setting a clear vision through purpose, values, and mission is the first step to turning chaos into order.
• Why it is necessary to establish the right team in your company to turn your vision into reality
• Why a consistent and regular meeting rhythm can help you more effectively plan your business strategy and execute your plan
• Why dedicated business leaders can double or triple their revenue in just 18-24 months as long as they take the proper steps to get their organizations focused
