Jay Bourgana has worked across banking, manufacturing, business turnarounds, real estate and acquisitions. Jeremy Yang asks him how he assesses a business that has stopped moving, and what he does once he finds the problem.

They discuss how Jay builds a management bench, why he starts earning employees’ trust through small visible improvements, and how the bottleneck limiting a business changes as other problems are solved.

They also discuss:

* Applying Theory of Constraints to a service business

* Helping employees understand costs and suggest improvements

* Developing good people as a company changes

* How Jay believes AI can make those people more productive

* Why some trades business owners deliberately stop growing after a painful expansion

* What an experienced operator sees in a business whose owner has capped its growth

This episode is for business owners trying to understand why more demand or more work isn’t producing the progress they expected.
