My guest today is Mitch Freed, the new CEO at Genumark - one of North America’s most trusted branded merch makers for over 40 years.
Mitch isn’t the first Freed to be on my show. You may remember his dad Mark Freed who I had the privilege of interviewing on one of my very first episodes. Since then, Mark has stepped down as CEO, passing the torch on to his first born son.
I Invited Mitch to be a guest on my show to talk about succession plans. I wanted to learn what finally led him to Genumark after starting his own business. And I was curious to get his POV on the pros and cons of taking over a family business.
