What if the key to a better business… was making everyone step away from it?

In this month’s episode of Building Value, we’re diving into a bold, transformational idea: the forced sabbatical. Presilium Private Wealth has implemented a policy that requires every team member to completely unplug—no emails, no phones, no work—for two full weeks.

At first, the reaction was predictable: hesitation, concern, even fear. But that discomfort is exactly the point.

Brook Hart explains how this approach isn’t just about burnout prevention or encouraging vacations. It’s a deliberate move to:

Reveal hidden bottlenecks and over-reliance on individuals

Strengthen internal systems and team collaboration

Encourage rest, reflection, and big-picture thinking

Ultimately create a better client experience

You’ll learn how to design your own sabbatical system, what pitfalls to expect (and how to prepare for them), and why this strategy leads to a win–win–win: for your team, your business, and your clients.

Listen now to learn how time away can build lasting value.
