from The Human Connection Podcast

"I want to ask all the questions that people are generally scared of asking. And it's not that scary, honestly, when people ask to step up and say the answer." - Jake WellsEver feel like you're running a business on accident instead of on purpose? Jake Wells, EOS implementer and serial entrepreneur, joins host Karl Pontau to shake up the victim mentality that's holding too many leaders back.In this episode, Jake shares how he helps leadership teams break free from the "foregone conclusion" mindset—that feeling that revenue, profit, and growth are just happening to them rather than being intentionally created. He walks through a powerful story of challenging a client to think bigger: "What's impossible? What would be asinine and ludicrous?" The result? A team that shifted from incremental thinking to planning for exponential growth.You'll hear about:Why 10X goals might actually be easier than 2XThe "undercover business therapy" that happens when leaders get realHow personal growth directly impacts business growthThe difference between reacting to the market versus responding with intentionWhether you're leading a high-growth startup or a lifestyle business, this conversation will challenge you to look in the mirror and ask: Do you actually want to be here? And if so, what are you really building?Connect with Jake Wells and learn more in the show notes.
