Most business owners complain that nobody cares about the business as much as they do. Well... of course they don't—you own it! But there is a massive difference between a paycheck-collector who checks boxes and an intrapreneur who takes true ownership of outcomes. If your team acts like robots, it's usually because you built a factory instead of an environment that fosters leadership.

In this episode of Win Make Give, Bob Stewart and Chad Hyams break down the 6-step playbook to bridge the Ownership Gap. You will learn how to stop assigning to-do lists, implement the "3-Before-Me" problem-solving rule, teach your team the financial scoreboard, and create clear guardrails that empower your people to think, act, and deliver like business owners.
