After listening to your incredible conversation with Meny Hoffman about "What Every CEO Learns Too Late," I was so inspired that I had to create this tribute to capture the wisdom you shared.
🎯 The GWC Formula
Your explanation of "Gets It, Wants It, Capacity" completely changed how I think about hiring and team placement. It's not just about skills—it's about finding people who truly understand the role, desire it, and have the mental and emotional capacity to excel.
⚠️ The Danger Zone
The insight about businesses hitting chaos around 8-10 employees resonated deeply. You articulated something I've witnessed but couldn't name—that crucial inflection point where informal systems break down and intentional structure becomes essential.
🚣‍♂️ The Raft Analogy
Your story about the raft that gets you across the river but becomes dead weight on the other side is pure gold. It perfectly captures why successful entrepreneurs must constantly evolve their approaches as their businesses grow.
đź’ˇ Inspiration vs. Motivation
The distinction you made between short-term motivation and lasting inspiration was profound. True leadership isn't about pushing people—it's about creating an environment where they're naturally pulled toward excellence.
— A key insight from your conversation that I'll carry forever
Your journey from electrician to successful contractor to EOS expert shows that true wisdom comes from lived experience combined with the humility to keep learning. Thank you for sharing your insights so generously and helping leaders like me see the path forward through the chaos.
