    Ep. 41: Business Lessons from Mixed Martial Arts

    The code of conduct for MMA-style training camps and facilities align closely to successful business models: Trust, Embracing failure, Emotional control and Fundamentals. They are also pretty close to our BBB 8 Standards of Trust! This is why we invited Sensei Scottie C. Jackson of PKIMMA San Antonio to walk us through (or kick our way through) the values of operating a mixed martial arts facility.

A veteran of the U.S. Air Force, Glenda also walked us through her transition from career Military to a field she truly "digs"!
