Founder Mindset & Sales Alignment: Fixing the Culture Bottleneck with Mike Simmons

In this episode of The Founder's Growth Show, host John Hill, AKA Small Mountain, sits down with Mike Simmons, Founder of Catalyst, to examine how founder mindset, self-leadership, and sales alignment drive sustainable business growth. Mike breaks down practical frameworks for B2B selling, scaling a business without damaging team culture, and shifting focus from lagging revenue outcomes toward controlled daily inputs. He also discusses the difficulty founders (and all people) have in blaming others when things are going wrong rather than looking in the mirror. But, as Mike states, true leadership happens when you lead yourself first. Learn how to identify the root causes of revenue stalls, what to consider when building sustainable and repeatable processes, and how to ensure operational clarity across your entire organization.
