The short answer is: it does and its owners and leaders are just ordinary entrepreneurs who were merely trying to do their best to solve a business problem. Listen in as Jesse Cole brings in Mary Miller, the CEO and owner of JANCOA and the very persona behind the dream manager. In this conversation she shares how to create a culture of caring and help your employees achieve their dreams, how to hire differently, how to ask different questions and how to dramatically lower turnover and attract amazing people.

The best people in any business look beyond success and constantly strive to do something bigger and better. Sports marketing guru Brandon Steiner lives by this principle every day. You would think that someone who has built a brand as iconic as Steiner Sports and bought the Yankee Stadium at one point in their lives is living at the pinnacle of achievement, but Brandon refuses to settle for success. To him, being in capacity is a sure road to mediocrity and what distinguishes us, humans from the rest of the animal kingdom is our ability to take everything we do best of and try to do better. Through his books, podcast and speaking engagements, Brandon endeavors to inspire leaders and entrepreneurs to stop wallowing in their past successes and ask themselves, “What else?” Pick up some lessons, encouragement and other Steinerisms that you can take in your own journey to greatness as Brandon speaks with Jesse Cole in this episode of all episodes.
