EP 280 Remembering Rich Wilson: Lessons from a Life of Leadership

This episode is a tribute to Rich Wilson, President and CEO of Paul Davis Restoration, and a leader whose impact reached far beyond the companies he led.

Originally recorded as a candid conversation on leadership and entrepreneurship, this re-released episode captures Rich’s philosophy on accountability, culture, mentorship, and what it truly means to lead without excuses.

Rich believed leadership was a skill that could be developed, that results must be owned, and that people matter as much as performance. His lessons will surely continue to guide entrepreneurs, executives, and emerging leaders who strive to build strong teams and meaningful organizations.

🎙 You will hear insights on:

• Taking full responsibility as a leader

• Hiring the right people and holding high standards

• Balancing assertiveness with active listening

• The power of mentorship and learning through failure

• Leading with clarity, integrity, and purpose

We invite you to listen again or for the first time, and to reflect on the leadership lessons Rich Wilson so generously shared.
