In this episode, host Laurie Barkman welcomes Bill Spohn, President and CEO of Tru Tech Tools, to discuss the characteristics of the entrepreneurial mindset, the intersection of engineering and entrepreneurship, and his career journey. Bill shares his family's legacy of risk-taking, talks about the challenges he faces as a business owner, and provides advice for other entrepreneurs. He also discusses his passion for sustainability through the construction of his eco-friendly home and his involvement in the HVAC industry.

Takeaways:

  • Leaders should frequently communicate their vision and goals. Repeating key messages helps ensure everyone understands and aligns with the mission. Reinforce core values and objectives regularly in meetings and newsletters.
  • Connect with other CEOs and entrepreneurs to share experiences and solutions. Maintain a network of peers for regular discussions and support, as it's essential to normalize and tackle common challenges.
  • Highlighting and rewarding team members' adherence to core values can foster a positive and cohesive company culture. Use real-life examples to illustrate these values in action to make them more relatable and tangible.
  • Stay engaged with the latest trends and educate your customers and team on new techniques and processes. For example, using podcasting and presentations to disseminate knowledge and build authority in your industry.

Quote of the Show:

  • “You don't want to be in the role of telling people what to do, but it's encouraging people to do what you think is right, but also being open to learn from them.” - Bill Spohn
