Proven Leadership Strategies with Gary Elekes | Podcast

Great contracting companies start at the top with leadership. Leadership sets the tone for the rest of the team, putting talented people in a position to excel and helping bring the best out of those who could use a little more attention. Good leadership allows the owner to step away for a day, a week, a month, and know the company can thrive without them.

Gary shares some tried and true leadership strategies and coaching tactics he’s picked up over his three-plus decades in home services — strategies that have helped him succeed at some of the biggest-name companies in the industry, as well as in his role as a serial entrepreneur who has acquired and turned around a number of contracting companies since 2003; strategies that allow him to sit in the Cayman Islands while his companies can survive without him.
