    Building a Culture of Ownership and Accountability With Chris Dyer

    In This Episode Culture doesn't improve by accident—it improves when leaders design it intentionally. In this episode, Adi Klevit interviews Chris Dyer about how company culture becomes a system when leaders shift from control to empowerment. Chris shares how, early in his career, all decisions flowed through him, unintentionally stalling innovation and growth. That realization pushed him to rethink leadership and build an environment where employees were trusted to think, decide, and act. Adi and Chris discuss the practical changes required to create an ownership-driven culture, including encouraging experimentation, allowing room for mistakes, and changing how leaders respond to ideas. Chris explains why stepping back from decision-making helped his teams develop stronger judgment and confidence, leading to faster growth and better outcomes. The conversation also explores how culture can be systematized, even in remote environments. Chris introduces his Seven Pillars of Amazing Culture and explains why transparency, recognition, measurement, and intentional communication are essential for scaling culture without relying on a single leader.

    Unlocking Scalable Growth by Systematizing Marketing With Kasandra Murray

    In This Episode Great marketing alone can't sustain growth if operations aren't prepared to support it. In this episode, Adi Klevit sits down with Kasandra Murray to explore the critical connection between marketing and operations. Kasandra explains how marketing may bring leads through the door, but it's operational systems—training, documentation, and follow-through—that determine whether those leads turn into satisfied customers and long-term growth. Adi and Kasandra discuss common gaps they see across industries, particularly the tendency for businesses to overspend on marketing while underinvesting in internal training and process improvement. Kasandra shares practical examples of how strengthening operations can dramatically improve marketing performance, including a case where fixing call handling doubled a company's revenue without increasing ad spend. The conversation also dives into change management, documenting processes, and making systems easy to follow. Kasandra emphasizes that processes should be living documents and that real progress happens when teams understand the "why" behind the system—not just the steps.

    How Chris LaFay Builds Websites That Scale With Your Business

    In This Episode A website should support your business—not slow it down. In this episode, Adi Klevit sits down with Chris LaFay to discuss why most business websites fail to scale alongside the company. Chris explains how poorly structured websites often turn into bottlenecks, forcing founders and teams to rely on developers for even the smallest updates. Adi and Chris explore how a website can be intentionally designed as a sales and trust-building system. Chris shares his philosophy of building websites that function like living proposals—answering questions, showcasing proof, and guiding prospects through decision-making without requiring endless emails or custom decks. The conversation also dives into the importance of processes, even in creative businesses. Chris explains how simple, repeatable systems—especially around relationship management and follow-ups—create consistency, trust, and long-term growth.

    Lindsay Nahmiache on How Strategic Systems Create Freedom for Founders

    In This Episode Adi Klevit sits down with Lindsay Nahmiache for a powerful conversation about growth, discomfort, and the systems that allow founders to evolve beyond daily operations. Lindsay shares how unexpected moments—like being stranded in Nepal without a passport—became pivotal experiences that shaped her ability to think clearly, creatively, and strategically. Adi highlights how these personal experiences directly influence leadership style and long-term business success. They also explore the early days of Lindsay's marketing agency, including how saying "yes" before having all the answers led to landing major clients like Virgin Radio. Adi emphasizes that this wasn't luck, but a mindset backed by execution, structure, and a willingness to figure things out. The conversation reinforces how confidence paired with systems creates opportunity. As the episode unfolds, Adi and Lindsay dive into what it truly takes to scale. Lindsay explains why founders must eventually remove themselves from operations—even when it feels uncomfortable—and how strong systems step in to support the business at the next level. Adi reinforces that this transition is essential for founders who want freedom, clarity, and sustainable growth without becoming the bottleneck.

    Unlocking Business Freedom Through Documentation With John Gwaltney

    In This Episode Freedom doesn't happen by accident—it's built through systems. In this episode, Adi Klevit sits down with John Gwaltney to unpack how intentional systemization allowed him to step out of daily operations while continuing to scale multiple businesses. John shares the evolution of Outback Deck, from knocking on doors and handing out flyers to building a $14–15 million operation that runs without constant owner involvement. John explains how hiring improved once his team invested in documented processes and repeatable hiring systems. He also walks through how operational clarity led to innovation, including the creation of Deck Metrics, Contractor Classroom, and Deck View—tools designed to help contractors price faster, sell more confidently, and deliver consistent results. Throughout the conversation, Adi and John tie everything back to documentation, accountability, and having a single source of truth. John emphasizes that systems are not about control—they are about trust, consistency, and giving leaders the confidence to step away without things falling apart.

    Wendy Lieber on Where AI Helps—and Where Humans Must Lead

    In This Episode: Just because AI can do something doesn't mean it should. In this episode, Adi Klevit sits down with Wendy Lieber to unpack one of the most misunderstood topics in business today: AI and marketing. Wendy shares what she's seen firsthand as agencies and entrepreneurs rush to automate everything—and why that approach often backfires. Adi and Wendy explore where AI genuinely adds value, such as research, organization, and efficiency, and where it creates risk by removing the human element. They discuss why sales, storytelling, and relationship-building still require people—not machines—and how businesses can build systems that support humans rather than replace them. The conversation also covers leadership responsibility in the age of AI, including Wendy's recommendation to create a clear internal stance or "AI charter." The episode brings everything back to systems: clarity, intention, ethics, and using tools in service of long-term value rather than short-term shortcuts.

    Unlocking Sustainable Leadership Systems With Tony Thelen

    In This Episode Leadership isn't sustainable without intention, structure, and reflection. In this episode, Adi Klevit sits down with Tony Thelen to explore the often-overlooked concept of systematizing leadership. Drawing on decades of executive experience at John Deere, Tony explains why repeatable success depends on systems—not just in operations, but in how leaders manage themselves, their decisions, and their priorities. The conversation also explores Tony's book, Things We Desire, inspired by the 1927 poem Desiderata. Tony and Adi discuss how enduring values such as peace, purpose, and self-awareness can be translated into practical leadership systems. Tony introduces his four-quadrant framework, offering leaders a structured way to manage professional life, personal relationships, community involvement, and self-care with intention.

    Building a Business That Runs Without You: Jamey Schrier's Path to Freedom

    In This Episode Most business owners don't struggle because they lack effort—they struggle because they're trapped by control, identity, and belief systems. In this episode, Adi Klevit sits down with returning guest Jamey Schrier to explore why so many entrepreneurs remain buried in daily operations long after they intended to scale. Jamey outlines three core constraints that keep owners stuck: fear of letting go, over-identification with a role or profession, and deeply ingrained beliefs—especially around money. Adi and Jamey connect these mindset challenges to the practical necessity of systemization. They discuss why documenting intuition, defining standards, and accepting that team members don't need to be exact replicas of the founder are essential for growth. The conversation reinforces that systems only work when owners are willing to evolve how they think, lead, and delegate.
