My brother started our company 33 years ago. One of our key employees, who is very important to us, is considering taking over the company when we eventually retire. We realized he needed to learn the business, preferably from someone other than us. We did not want him to learn the hard way, and take decades like we did, so we worked with Bob Showers to get him started in the SOE. In the last 18 months, this employees commitment, contribution, and confidence have soared. He has become a leader himself. He is getting the education we did not have available to us on customer care, team building, marketing for a service company, work habits, leadership, and much more. In many cases, you learn from teachers who do not have real world experience on what they are teaching. In this case, you are learning from a master, Larry Janesky, someone who does what we do every day at a very high level. By the way, this education would apply to any business. I am in the school myself now, and it’s amazing. It is life changing, and more than worth the investment. Thanks Larry Janesky for the gift of all of your experience and effort you put into the SOE. Thanks Bob Showers for getting us started.
This is great to hear, though not surprising. I’ve spent time with two other contractors recently who told me how this SOE content is transforming their business and their life.
YES!!!
