At the end of 2019 and the end of the decade, I give you the tools to plan for 2020 and for growing your team and company in the New Year and the New Decade. 

The key to building teams and businesses is the same as successfully climbing big mountains and that is developing an Endurance Mindset.

Often times, as entrepreneurs, we're tempted to do everything with a sprint pace, while building a business for the long-term requires us to run a marathon and not burn out. 

In this episode, I introduce you to the Summit Success Coaching Methodology and how you can apply it in building your team and business.  I share stories from my 3-week long expedition on Denali and the months-long preparation for it and how the lessons I learned can be applied in business. 

I share stories from our crazy early days of running sprints back to back at Zynga, where I was an early product manager and what we learned from the crash-and-burn cycle.

In this week's "Coach's Corner", we talk about how to transition from that super early startup mentality of running fast into a longer term thinking and planning. 

I introduce a new show segment: "Which type of unconscious bias is it?"

Finally, in our "Tip of the Week" segment I give you tools and ideas about practically planning for the long-term.  One of the tools I mention is Impact Filters, which I've found to be incredibly useful when you start any project, including hiring for a key role.  Here's a link to an Impact Filter template.
