This episode traces a career arc from franchise operations at Jenny Craig through nearly 16 years of E-Myth business coaching to executive leadership at a high-growth professional services firm. The conversation explores how frameworks like working on it not in it apply to developing managers who can bridge vision to execution, and why investing in people through direct feedback and delegation is the real multiplier for sustainable growth.
