256: 3 Reasons to Leave Your Day Job and Go Boss-Free

With details about the Boss-Free Virtual Summit

Are you unhappy where you’re at in your career? Did you dread getting up this morning and driving to work? If so, then today’s episode is especially for you.

Recent studies show you’re not alone. An Inc.com article from last year pointed out that over 70 percent of workers say they are dissatisfied in their jobs.

A recent Gallup poll says that “87 percent of workers are emotionally disconnected from their workplaces and less likely to be productive.”

If you’re in that group I feel for you because that was me at one time. And to make matters worse, I had no idea what my next move should be.

What I did know was that if I stayed in the same industry, the opportunities where I lived were limited. And I wasn’t willing to move to another town.

What I really wanted to do was venture out on my own. But, I wasn’t even sure what I’d do for an income. I wanted to be my own boss, but the question was…the boss of what?!

If you can relate, check out my latest episode below and learn more about my upcoming Boss Free Virtual Summit.

244: Building a Successful Business Through Faith in People and a Culture of Hospitality

With Author Cameron Mitchell

I was reluctant at first when I became aware of the book I’m featuring on today’s show.

I wasn’t convinced there was much for me to learn about business from someone running a successful restaurant company.

cameron mitchell

Call me narrow-minded, but I had doubts about whether the success traits in what I see as a cutthroat industry could possibly be universal. Boy, was I wrong.

Today, author and restaurant success story, Cameron Mitchell, visits the guest chair to discuss his brand new book Yes is the Answer. What is the Question?: How Faith in People and a Culture of Hospitality Built a Modern American Restaurant Company.

Cameron succeeded against all odds, having dropped out of school and run away from home as a teenager. His story is truly a “dish room to boardroom” tale.
