About this listen
Summary:
This episode features a Too Long, Didn't Listen (TL;DL) summary of my conversation with Jeff Parnell, a fractional interim CEO with 30 years of operational leadership experience. After a 2018 life-saving heart transplant, Jeff crystallized his mission to help business owners transition before it's too late. We explore three key insights: his results-first philosophy from Overton's where numbers mattered more than prettiness, his approach to the silver tsunami of aging business owners held hostage by their companies, and his commitment to execution over beautiful consulting reports. Jeff challenges owners to plan for the unexpected, embrace vulnerability, and surround themselves with people who've been in the trenches.
