Matt Blumberg's series coaches entrepreneurs on transitioning from startup to sustainable business and founder to CEO. His concise video series highlights the importance of thoughtful processes in operations, talent development, financing, and work-life balance.
This series emphasizes intentional decision-making, clear communication, and creating efficient operating systems for both the company and the CEO's personal life as crucial to achieving sustainable growth and success.
