Too many people treat business decisions like killing fish. Today’s guest explains how he believes this mindset is detrimental to maintaining meaningful connections with the people a business serves. Instead, he claims, every decision should be thought of as planting a tree.

In today’s episode, Tim sits down with Kirk Newby (President of Associated Energy Systems), a legacy maker Tim has long respected. Pulling from his lifetime of experience, Kirk shares some valuable words of wisdom you won’t want to miss.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

How Kirk has maintained a remarkable relationship with his brother and business partner for over 30 years (this is a lesson in humility).
Why things that are worth doing are never easy (this message is especially pertinent to younger people).
What must be put in place to be a relationally driven business (this is how to plant trees and not kill fish).

If you want to retire from a thriving legacy business when the time comes, you need to stop running your company like a fishing operation and start viewing it as a tree nursery instead. Listen today to learn how one of our industry’s greats has set himself up for this outcome.
