On this episode we talk about actionable steps you can take in your business while dealing with uncertainty with Jonathan Teeters, MBA and Head of Business Development at Azuca. 

We cover the subjects of  team management in these times, adjustments being made as capital markets disappear, supply chains, and strategy needs to steer. We discuss how to address customers in a time of uncertainty and why leadership, business development, and content are key focus points during this time.  

Jonathan has more than 20 years leading teams, building strategy, and developing relations. He has more than 6 years as a leader in the emerging cannabis and hemp industries, I've cultivated a deep set of relationships that I now use to effectively develop business opportunities, influence policy, support innovation, and increase access for underrepresented voices.  Jonathan utilizes a broad set of technical and interpersonal skills to help stakeholders and customers meet their challenges and capitalize on an opportunity.  

 

 

Behind the Scenes Interview

What is the best thing that is going on in your career right now? 

Well, our company/brand is relatively well-positioned to come out of this CV thing in good shape. Strong partnerships emerging... otherwise it’s kinda weird these days. 

 

Why are you part of the cannabis industry? 

I like doing things that haven’t been done. I want to be able to look back in 20 years and say I helped build that. I love cannabis and what it can do for people, their physical and mental health, and Mother Earth. 

 

What's the biggest challenge you've faced as a business owner that you can share with our audience? 

How to have a positive outlook in uncertainty. Being nimble is a real thing now. Managing cash. Positioning in a changing landscape.
