🕒 What if the way your business uses “time” is actually destroying your growth, your team, and your culture? What is business timing?
In this eye-opening episode of By Design Advisors, Marty Osborn and Dale Thrush break down why year-end bonuses, annual performance reviews, and long-term planning are failing your business — and how rethinking your relationship with time can unlock massive execution and employee trust.
You'll hear:
- Why annual bonuses *actually* kill motivation and crush cash flow
- The death of the performance review (and what to do instead)
- How shifting to **90-day sprints** changed everything at Advoc
- Why most “goals” are just delayed excuses
- What your investors/bankers *don't care about* (but you still stress over)
- How to build accountability without burnout
- And why the best time to start? Is yesterday.
------------
