On this episode, I sit down with Rich Thiebaud to unpack his incredible journey in the green industry. Rich built and scaled his own landscape company to $8 million in revenue before feeling called to pivot into a new chapter. That decision led him to LMN, where he helped transform the way contractors run their businesses, and now into his role as EVP of Sales at Leanscaper.

We talk about the lessons he learned building a successful company, the courage it takes to change direction at the top of your game, and how his passion for people and growth fuels his work today. Whether you're running a crew, scaling a business, or considering your next big leap, Rich's story is packed with insight and inspiration.
