About this listen
In this energizing episode of ASOTU Unscripted, host Errol Bomar sits down with Kyle Newsom, founder of Vasperio, to explore his transformational journey from technician to Fixed Ops leader, to bold entrepreneur. Kyle shares how his early days working in a family-run business shaped his strong work ethic, and how meeting his wife eventually became the catalyst for a life-changing move and career evolution. Their shared decision to sell everything—including their home—and go “all-in” on launching a people-first training company exemplifies a powerful commitment to values and vision.STAY CONNECTED WITH ASOTU:Sign up for the ASOTU Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/Watch the docu-series “More Than Cars” at https://www.morethancars.tvFollow us on Instagram at / asotu_morethancars Join the community on LinkedIn at / asotu TIME STAMPS: 0:00 Intro0:31 Born into business: Kyle's multi-industry childhood1:50 From Ford tech to Fixed Ops leadership3:01 Realizing the power of investing in people4:07 Starting Vasperio: Selling everything for a purpose5:43 Kind leadership vs. nice leadership explained7:19 From reactive chaos to proactive systems9:20 The value of practicing with your team, not customers---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What is the difference between kind and nice leadership in the automotive industry?How did Kyle Newsome build Vasperio by going all-in with his family?Why are proactive systems essential in fixed operations?How can dealerships use training to reduce customer-facing errors?What are the benefits of setting clear standards for automotive teams?How can leadership coaching transform dealership service departments?What does "embrace kindness, ignite greatness" mean in business culture?
