Success doesn’t come from working harder, it comes from thinking differently.
In this episode, I talk with Bruce Eckfeldt, strategic coach and 5x Inc. 500 founder, about how to shift from founder mode to CEO-level thinking. If you’re feeling the strain of growth and wondering why your business feels harder at $7M than it did at $1M, Bruce breaks down how to restructure your team, planning, and priorities to build something sustainable.
What we cover:
- What separates founders from strategic CEOs
- The building blocks of scalable, sellable businesses
- Why a 3-day strategy sprint can reveal your biggest blind spots
- How to start thinking—and acting—for your business’s long game
