    EP 142 | How I Built A 200-Person Company With ZERO Systems - Graeme Holm

    Graeme Holm reveals why he built a 200-person empire with NO systems, the 3 external CEOs who all failed, how his team stays 8+ years when the industry average is 18 months, and the brutal truth about scaling that business coaches won't tell you.  Graeme Holm runs a mortgage business with 189 staff, created a "treasure chest" of award-winning leaders, and refuses to sell despite massive offers. He exposes: ◼️ Why the 3 external CEOs he hired over 18 months all failed—and what that taught him about ownership ◼️ The "no systems" approach that kept his best people for 8-9 years (rare in any industry) ◼️ How his head of finance won Broker of the Year while working FOR him, not competing against him ◼️ Why "no one will ever treat your business like their own"—the truth about hired leadership ◼️ The difference between owners and operators—and why most business coaches were "failed employees" ◼️ How Rachel now runs his masterclasses after he built a "treasure chest of people" who can replace him ◼️ Why he's manic, unstructured, and ignores every business guru—yet scaled to nearly 200 staff going global ◼️ The real secret to long-tenure staff: competent people, not perfect systems ◼️ Why he refuses to sell for any amount—because "bean counters would run it and the community would suffer" ◼️ What 12 years of blood, sweat and tears bought him: "Now I can spend the rest of my life however the f*ck I want"
