A Cuban physician who arrived in the U.S. via Venezuela, Olber identified a critical gap: the lack of culturally aligned, Spanish-speaking primary care for Hispanic families. What began as a single clinic has grown into a trusted network serving tens of thousands of patients, driven by human connection, language, and culture.Olber dives into the strategies behind this growth, from patient-first care and culturally fluent teams to training programs, technology integration, and operational efficiency — all while keeping relationships at the center. He also offers insights on hiring, retention, corporate culture, and financial planning, providing a rare look at scaling a healthcare operation without losing purpose. Essential listening for healthcare leaders, entrepreneurs, and anyone building organizations for diverse communities.Key insights:- Culturally aligned care transforms Hispanic patient experiences.- Patient-first mindset drives loyalty and community trust.- Spanish-speaking teams bridge language gaps and strengthen relationships.- Tech integration enhances efficiency without losing human connection.- Training programs empower staff to deliver culturally fluent care.- Scaling healthcare successfully requires purpose, culture, and empathy.#Leadership #Entrepreneurship #LatinaLeaders #Mindset #Resilience #CSuitePowerPlay

    EP03 Scaling Smart: George Baker on Building to the Moon with MVP Thinking and Purpose-Driven Leadership

    In this episode, we sit down with George Baker, Sr., founder of ParkHub and Managing Partner of 2 The Moon Ventures, to unpack what it truly takes to scale an idea from a scrappy startup to a global operation. George shares how a simple parking pain point in Dallas evolved into a global $100M tech company through MVP thinking, human-centered design, and agile innovation. He dives deep into team frameworks like EOS, the power of values-driven culture, and the fine art of knowing when — and how — to exit a business. From digitizing parking to redefining leadership through purpose and alignment, George reveals what scaling smart truly means in today’s business landscape. Key Insights:  MVP as a strategic accelerator: Beyond “minimum viable product,” it’s about quickly testing solutions to understand market fit and scale efficiently. Value over profit: The focus is on creating value for customers and stakeholders, not just revenue. Execution + opportunity = growth: Even the best idea requires precise execution, preparation, and timing to succeed. Culture, values, and purpose: Teams aligned around mission and core values drive innovation, engagement, and retention. EOS provides a clear results-driven framework. Smart talent management: Quickly identifying misaligned team members prevents toxicity and opens space for others to step up. Exit readiness and capital strategy: Knowing your “North Star” and maintaining strong banking and financial relationships enables informed decisions on investment, mergers, or sales. Global scaling: Expansion requires analyzing market size, penetration, and competition, then acting quickly to capture opportunities while maintaining operational control.
