Summary
Most service business owners are brilliant Founders.
But at some point, the very qualities that built the business start to hold it back.
In this episode, Rich breaks down the real difference between operating as a Founder and leading as a CEO, and how to know when the shift is no longer optional.
In This Episode, We Cover:
· What Founder mode vs CEO mode actually looks like in practice
· Why staying in Founder mode becomes a growth ceiling
· The four signs it's time to make the shift
· What the transition actually requires (and why it's uncomfortable)
· How to channel your Founder energy into real leadership
Key Takeaway
The business can only grow to the level at which its owner is willing to lead.
If you're still operating as a Founder when the business needs a CEO, that gap will show up, in your growth, your team, and how the business feels to run.
