The Courage of a Leader

How to Make Courageous Bold Moves in Your Business | Courtney Wright


Listen Later

Courtney Wright has made bold business moves throughout her career. In this episode, we discuss how she does it. How does she courageously and continuously take action that leads to impressive business results? You’ll learn that her secret to success is much more about what she believes and thinks, than what she does.

 

About the Guest:

Courtney Wright values helping people and believes in "the grind." An entrepreneur, podcast host, innovator, problem solver, wife, and mother, Wright wears many hats - the first of which goes on in the wee hours of the morning.

Wright founded CDW Merchants, the leading 3D visual retail displays and E-commerce gift packaging provider for the nation's top retailers including Kate Spade, Victoria’s Secret, and Club Monaco. In 2016, Courtney packaged CDW for the last time and sold it to Bunzl PLC (traded on the FTSE 100). That same year, Wright bought Gemini Builds It! and Showcase Acrylics, a leader in the framing, moulding, and custom display industry. 

As CEO, Wright quickly expanded their offerings to become a well-known name in E-commerce, Design, Corporations, Museums and Institutions, PPE and Healthcare, as well as the Hospitality and Events industries. She continues to look for organic growth opportunities through additional acquisitions. With her solid mix of entrepreneurial foresight, creativity, and hustle mentality, it was only natural that Wright would develop a platform to share her highly sought-after business advice.

The Ladyboss Podcast by Courtney Wright is a modern-day guide to business, offering listeners real conversations with other successful leaders and entrepreneurs to discuss failures, successes, and strategies.
