His understanding of “That Pie in the Sky” idea of scaling-- which every business owner wants to achieve is not so easy when you're actually in the trenches, is unmatched!   Paul is well known for taking a marvelously simple and practical approach to achieving stunning scalability for businesses and has a ridiculous track record. He also recognizes that there's an intensely emotional side to the business journey; he always holds space for the owner to find their joy and their own personal potential in addition to the business's potential.   This conversation is honest and takes us through the mind of business owners,  what it means to them to be at “their best” and the ways in which they serve their team.    Tune in now!   On today's episode we talk about: Paul’s early career and what moved him to become a scaling genius.
