In this episode we’re back with Gokul Padmanabhan of Restoration Brokers of America. Gokul has facilitated more than $600M of restoration business transactions.    This is our second episode with Gokul and we take a little bit different direction with the conversation- some guiding principles for growing a high performance restoration business.    Gokul and his team get an up-close look at more than 100 restoration companies every year and he’s identified several attributes that separate the high performers and the rest of the pack.

This episode is actually a follow-on episode from our last show, "Commander's Intent". As sales leaders, how do we handle ourselves when our team is struggling or we're in an extraordinary environment like Hurricane Ian? How do we effectively manage our client's expectations and perspective, while simultaneously supporting and encouraging our ops team. One thing is for sure- there's no profit in playing the victim, for the sales leader, or the team.  Thanks for listening!

Hi All, this is a special episode. Brandon started sharing some thoughts on battlefield leadership from his military experience, and I thought, "Holy cow, I have to record this. We have to make this an episode." I pretty much just stayed out of the way. Brandon spits straight fire as he talks about the responsibility and mindset of a great leader, when everything's at stake. Check it out, and you'll probably want to pass it along to a friend.  Have a friend who's running teams in Florida right now? They should probably hear it too!  Let us know what you think of this special episode. Shoot me an email chris@floodlightgrp.com - Chris     Thanks for listening!

In our second episode with Jenny, we zero in on the "get sh*t done" culture of restoration. In a uniquely demanding industry, how do we manage and lead our people through its chaotic nature in a way that's sustainable and healthy? Is it grit we need? Or something a bit different.  This topic is something that Jenny and her team are thinking about a lot, and it led to a great convo that I think all of us can apply to the way we're leading and taking care of our people.
