54. Thinking About the Future While Ignoring the Past with Dallas Mount


Listen Later

John Haskell welcomes Dallas Mount back to the podcast to discuss how to think about the future while ignoring the past. Sometimes we find ourselves in a situation we don't want to be in, and we want to reset and start over. Dallas walks us through an exercise he covered in a recent presentation to help us reconsider all of our assets on paper.

He shares how to reevaluate and optimize assets on family ranches, emphasizing the importance of listing and valuing significant assets, such as livestock and machinery, and then considering their market value. The exercise involves imagining the business with this capital as cash and deciding how to reinvest it for better business outcomes. They also highlight the importance of striking a balance between profitability and employee satisfaction, as well as the potential pitfalls of holding onto unnecessary assets.
