Episode #108 Scaling Without Selling Your Soul: The No-BS Guide to Culture-Driven GTM ft. Earl Foote
What if building a high-growth business didn’t mean burning out your team or selling your soul? In this episode of Bridge the Gap, we sit down with Earl Foote, Founder & CEO of Nexus IT, to talk about why values-driven leadership isn’t soft — it’s a go-to-market weapon. Earl built a 27-year IT powerhouse on culture, conviction, and calling BS when he sees it. We talk about burnout as a sign of misalignment, why work-life balance is a lie, how to build GTM teams that last, and why most leaders still don’t get it.
