Have you ever wondered how leadership principles can transform a business? Get ready to learn from our distinguished guest, John Rossman, an early Amazon executive and leadership expert, as he shares invaluable insights on his journey to the top and the role of leadership in driving significant change. Expect a discussion on the delicate art of managing scaling or descaling businesses, and how leading an experiment differs from leading an entire business.
Experience the world of Amazon through the eyes of John Rossman, who had the privilege of observing the essential role of leadership principles in fostering innovation. The clear yet demanding leadership style of Jeff Bezos, Amazon's founder, is put under the microscope. John's unique contributions as a team and individual advisor, and how those roles enriched his leadership journey, are also explored.

Finally, we dive into John's upcoming book, 'Big Bet Leadership', an essential playbook for thriving in the hyper-digital era. Prepare to be enlightened on the concept of 'big bets': initiatives with great concept risk and the difference between leadership and management. John emphasizes the significance of aligning these to the mission to create value. Additionally, he discusses the need for diverse policies in innovation and experimentation to fast-track learning. John also shares wisdom on the importance of pushing against the status quo, delegating, and broadening our understanding of problem-solving.

As entrepreneurs, many of us find ourselves trapped in the day-to-day operations of our businesses, realizing too late that we don’t own a business—we own a job. In this episode, I sit down with Lyn Askin, a certified EOS implementer and lifelong entrepreneur, to discuss how business owners can break free from this trap. Lyn shares his personal story of reaching a breaking point and the critical moment when he realized his business could not run without him. His journey led him to implement the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), transforming not only his business but his life.

Lyn explains how EOS helps entrepreneurs create clear vision, accountability, and discipline within their organizations. We dive into the six key components of EOS—vision, people, data, issues, process, and traction—and how each helps businesses scale while empowering founders to step away from the day-to-day grind. If you’re ready to stop being the bottleneck in your business and start creating a company that can thrive without you, this episode is a must-listen.
