Most PT business owners have heard the advice: build a business that can run without you. If you own multiple clinics, that's the wrong question. In most of today's larger transactions, the owner isn't going anywhere. Acquirers want you to stay three years or longer. So the real question is: when a partner walks in the door, do they have to build the leadership around you, or is it already there?In this episode, Paul Martin uses lessons from football, from Bill Walsh's 49ers to Nick Saban's coaching tree to the Steelers' three head coaches since 1969, to show how great organizations build leadership that wins year after year. Then he shares three steps to build that same leadership in your PT business: own the roles, write down your systems, and build your bench.
