    From Idea to Action: Season 5 of The Five Facets of Business

    Most business owners already have the tools to run their company. Software's never been easier to find. What's hard is the leadership work: get buy-in from the team, put a system into practice, and stay consistent when things get busy. In Season 5 of The Five Facets of Business™ Podcast, we move past the theory and go straight to the how. We open the season with a shift in focus. In the past four seasons, we explored what a business needs to grow past its founder. This season, we take on the next question: what does it take to lead a business that runs on an operating system, day to day? Each episode tackles one specific problem business leaders face and gives a path forward you can use right away and bring on guests who've put these systems to work in their own businesses, so you hear from leaders who've done the work, not just theorists.

    Case Study #8: "We Have Meetings Constantly...And Still Nothing Moves." with Hannah and Dave

    May the 4th be with you! Hannah and Dave do not discuss Star Wars in this episode unfortunately. However, they do discuss the importance of alignment in meetings. An often overlooked component for business is the efficiency and clarity around meetings. How often do you or your team hop on to a call and nothing seems to get done? It's more than likely that the one's leading the call aren't quite sure what they are trying to do with the meeting. Each meeting should have purpose and that purpose should be in line with the next step forward in your company. "Who is doing what, by when?"
