He also discusses some important lessons learned from Jim Collins and how some counter-intuitive strategies led to tremendous growth for his company.
Additionally, John discusses the lessons learned transitioning a family business from one generation to the next, the value of making mistakes, the lessons learned from his work with Hospice of the Valley, and the difference between leadership and management. He covers that and so much more.
