EPISODE QUOTES
“A vision without systems is a dream, but a vision with systems is a mission.” (02:08)
“You can have systems built around yourself. That is not scalable. That is not durable. That is not transferrable. What you’ve done is you’ve built a really good job, but that is not a business.” (08:50)
“The most successful companies, what they’ve done is they have a clear premise. They have clear core values defined. They have a clear vision and they have a clear mission.” (15:05)
“It’s not enough just to identify that person and then delegate to them. There’s gotta be some follow up and follow through that comes with that. This accountability that comes with delegation is absolutely critical.” (19:43)
“You don’t get what you want. You get what you incentivize.” (22:58)
“It creates such a peace in the organization, such a culture, when you have the meeting rhythm culture.” (31:31)
