Description

In business leadership, ego often does more harm than good. While confidence is necessary to lead, unchecked pride can quietly sabotage growth and stall organizational success. This is especially true in the blue-collar industry, where many owners carry the weight of “doing it all” themselves.


In this episode, Brad and John talk about:


  • Ryan's military background and its influence on his business journey
  • Lessons learned from entrepreneurial failures and successes
  • The importance of core values in hiring
  • Balancing cultural fit and skill set in new hires
  • Strategies for scaling a business and the role of partnerships
