Episode 208 - The Real CIA You Need in Your Auto Repair Shop: How to Lead with Control, Influence, and Acceptance
Description

Rick walks listeners through the real difference between what shop owners think they control and what they actually do. He explains why trying to force results leads to frustration, and how understanding influence can turn a disengaged team into one that’s motivated and aligned.
Listeners will also learn why acceptance isn’t weakness—it’s wisdom. It’s how great leaders turn unexpected outcomes into learning moments that fuel growth.
