Navigating an ESOP transition to firing the wrong leader and rebuilding alignment from the ground up, Christy Kovac, President and CEO of Sheridan Construction, shares the hidden truth about what it really takes to scale from 50 million to 120 million in revenue without losing culture, performance, or control.

In this powerful conversation on high performance leadership, business growth, and team accountability, Christy reveals how implementing EOS, redefining expectations, and embracing bold decision making transformed Sheridan Construction into a multi office, employee owned construction company operating across Georgia and beyond.

This is not theory. This is real world CEO leadership, succession planning, and operational excellence in action.

If you care about entrepreneurship, scaling a business, executive leadership, company culture, or building high performance teams, this episode delivers practical insights you can apply immediately.
