Join Disruptors: https://www.skool.com/disruptors/about Year two kicks off here. Justin debriefs the LeanScaper event in Chicago and pulls three takeaways straight from the room. The 131 rule from Dan Martell for handing problems back to your team instead of being the firefighter. Why trust is the foundation under every high performing company, with a nod to Patrick Lencioni's Five Dysfunctions of a Team. And the calendar audit that was Justin's biggest aha of the week: 14 days, 15 minute blocks, rate your energy, then apply the four Ds.

From there he digs into the issue squeezing landscapers right now. Profitability compression in an inflationary boom. Two operators, different sizes, same problem. Justin makes the case that the bottleneck is almost always at the top of the bottle, why hiring your heroes beats defaulting to a consultant, and how a simple system like EOS and a Level 10 meeting can break a leader's ceiling.
