What if the biggest obstacle to your company's growth isn't the problems you can't solve, but the ones you aren't creating? This counterintuitive idea is the key to radical business transformation. In this episode, Sean Weisbrot sits down with Ted Santos, President of Turnaround Investment Partners, to explore why leaders must stop solving problems and start creating them on purpose. We dive into how this strategy sparks true innovation, rewires the brain for change through neuroplasticity, and why self-mastery is the foundation of effective leadership. This conversation challenges everything you know about chaos, change management, and organizational success. Get ready to discover a new paradigm for growth.
