In this episode of The CEO Project Podcast, Jim Schleckser, author of Great CEOs Are Lazy, discusses how top CEOs can optimize their businesses. Jim announces the rebranding of the podcast from “The Lazy CEO Podcast” to “The CEO Project Podcast,” aligning with the project’s broader mission. Today’s guest, Bradley Hamner, a business growth coach, shares his journey from struggling in his first business to developing a scalable process architecture that allowed him to work “on” rather than “in” his business. Now, he coaches entrepreneurs to build systems that drive sustainable growth, primarily focusing on small to mid-sized businesses.
Bradley highlights the challenges small businesses face with popular operating systems like EOS and 4DX, often needing custom approaches to suit smaller teams. His “SCALE” framework emphasizes sustainable revenue, profitability, time off, leverage through delegation, and efficient operations. Together, Jim and Bradley discuss the importance of community and peer support among CEOs to reduce ego barriers, foster vulnerability, and achieve personal and business growth. This episode underscores that scalable success requires structured processes and a supportive community for CEOs on their journey.
