Episode notes
Plan For Founder Transition Early
- Build succession into businesses that depend on a single founder to create long-term enterprise value.
- Hire and grow other voices so the brand can survive when you step back or leave.
Shift From Personality To Portfolio Brand
- Transform personality-led shows into brand-led properties by introducing co-hosts and guest hosts.
- This lets the program identity outlive a single host and creates a clearer succession path.
Share Revenue To Retain Talent
