Sobre este podcast
Season 3 of The Habit Architect is now here!
Most business owners have built habits for themselves. Fewer have built the operational habits that make their company run the way it should.
In Seasons 1 and 2, Michael Cupps sat down with leaders, operators and experts to explore the habits behind personal growth, professional performance and life's bigger transitions.
In Season 3, those same conversations move inside the business: the operational habits, priorities and decisions that determine where a company ends up. Each episode goes inside a real business to look at the decisions and priorities that are either building toward an exit or working against one.
Built for founders, CEOs, and operators at growth-stage companies, including PE-backed businesses, mid-market operators and business owners preparing for a sale or transition. Topics include operational habits, priority management, exit readiness, business systems, and the decisions that drive company performance.
New episode every week. Tune in.
Better habits build better operations.
