EPISODE 336: Are you working 50-60 hours a week on your construction business? What happens if you suddenly can’t come to work? Is your business designed to run without you?

Here’s the staggering truth: Only 15% of CEOs have a business continuity plan in case they are incapacitated, pass away, or a key employee leaves the company. Why do only 15% of CEOs have such a plan?

In this week’s episode, Monish and I discuss the critical topic of business continuity. We talk about the ripple effects of a business owner’s absence, why most of them avoid continuity planning, how to make your construction business resilient, and what it means to have a business continuity plan.

Whether you’re securing your family’s and business’s future or just planning to take some time off, this episode is packed with invaluable insights that you don’t want to miss.
