It’s an interview is with the Co-Founder and CEO of BELAY, Bryan Miles. This episode is about: A Purposeful Culture Based on Trust.
BELAY is a high end Virtual Assistant company who has been on the Inc. 5000 list four times and named #1 in Entrepreneur Magazine’s Best Company Culture. This is a company that does not have a consolidated location.
You will also hear us talk about:
- How Bryan and his wife both resigned from their corporate jobs within an hour of each other to start their new company vision.
- Why the timing of his book was strategic as a historical marker for the business.
- He also shares what truly makes for a strong organizational culture and spoiler alert, it’s not the physical office space.
- We talk about how Bryan sees leadership as stewardship and additionally why the word “stewardship” is a very purposeful word. Stewardship may not be what you are thinking.
- We have a great conversation about delegation, including several reasons why leaders are reluctant to delegate, the benefits of effective delegation that some leaders may not think about, and, the simple ingredient to successfully delegate.
