Episode 168
Today’s show is a coach panel with Judy Guido and Daniel Marcos, where they share their thoughts on the World of Scaling Up and new developments that have happened over the course of the last month.
Daniel is the Founder of the Growth Institute and he coaches all over the world, with a primary focus in Latin American markets. Judy Guido is a returning panel guest. She is the Chair of Guido and Associates and has overseen at least 100 several successful mergers and acquisitions.
In this episode, we’ll be diving into whether customers drive disruption in the marketplace or whether it is the technology companies that do. We’ll also be comparing the differences between how technology has changed over the course of the last few years and how it has impacted our lives for the better.
Our panel of coaches brings forth the benefits of being introduced into an industry that they know nothing about. CEOs often see this as a disadvantage, but in reality, it is very valuable because it gives room for innovation and disruption. Bill, Daniel, and Judy discuss the ‘soul’ of the scale-up and the soul of a company; what does that mean? How important is it? And how can you replicate this in your business? There are actually three areas to think about: Business Intent, Customer Connection, and the Employee Experience.
Also, the coaches have a fun side discussion about Egyptian sculptures and why their noses are always broken off! Get ready for an exciting and engaging discussion about the world of scaling up!

PhD Research on CEOs
Quick favor: I'm in the middle of my doctoral research, and I need CEOs Here's the question: is there a point where working more hours actually indicates a worse leader? Nobody has measured it. I'm measuring it. If you're a CEO or president with at least ten people in the business and three direct reports, it takes just a few minutes. And Your team answers a few anonymous questions. What you get back is a report comparing how you rate yourself to how your team rates you. That gap is usually the interesting part. ScalingCoach.com/study
