About this listen
What does it take to break the “third generation curse” in family business?
Jamie McGregor joins us on the shop floor at McGregor Metal to talk about legacy, leadership, and reinvention. As a third-generation leader, Jamie carries the weight of a 60-year manufacturing company while navigating modern pressures like automation, workforce changes, and selective growth.
This conversation dives into culture, humility in leadership, the discipline of saying no to the wrong work, and why success is about more than hitting a revenue milestone.
Key Topics- The myth and reality of the third generation curse
- Leading a family business without entitlement
- Culture principles that actually show up on the floor
- Retention vs revenue vanity
- Selective growth and disciplined customer choice
- Private equity, ownership transitions, and what gets lost
- Reinventing manufacturing in Middle America
