The latest episode of the Business Growth Architect Show features Staсi Gray, from Organized to Scale. We connected over the trials and tribulations of the entrepreneurial journey, ensuring that you as the owner are not just relentlessly pursuing your goals but also pay attention to the creation of internal and external freedom.
Staci shared her ‘architect, build, operate’ model used to structure organizations, with the first stage being particularly crucial in establishing processes, workflows, tools, and technology. Needless to say we became BFF’s when she uttered the word “architect!”
Get deep insights into the psychological complexities that entrepreneurs face, including recognizing the warning signs and the potential for becoming a “business narcissist,” which translates to a need for constant attention and recognition.
Staсi highlighted the importance of generating the freedom that entrepreneurs seek, which often gets overshadowed by the relentless push for growth. She advocated for creating an enjoyable process and building a team that shares in the excitement and fulfillment of the journey.
Once a client told me that I had a ‘stern mom face’ and we are doing this a few times in this show emphasizing the necessity of maintaining consistency and not changing the rules whimsically—underscoring the need for discipline in your entrepreneurial journey.
Staci also has a clear message and that is how to say no to “shiny pennies”—the myriad of distractions that can lead you off course. Staсi proposed the practice of Journaling your ideas without necessarily sharing or monetizing each one, reflecting on the concept that you don’t need to execute every idea but might sometimes be designated to pass those ideas on to others more suited to bringing them to fruition.
