Scaling With People

Send us a text

We all have revenue goals, we all have team size goals, and we have all impact goals. However, understanding what you want to be known for as an organization will help you focus your efforts on the right places to achieve your goals. Your business reputation and the people you hire in your organization matter because you spend more time with them than your family, and building great relationships is key. Hiring people just for skills and effectiveness without them sharing in your vision can crumble your business. Your original vision and message can be washed out by outside voices or get lost in other people's operating styles, so take control of your business growth.

Join the conversation with Alex Kuhn as he shares how to keep your revenue ahead of your expenses to stay profitable without giving up your values and the equity of our business to stay alive. Alex is the founder of Born To Lead. He started the company in 2020, knowing everyone has a gift that can do good, change lives and make millions no matter what others say. Today he and his team mentor over 250,000 clients, have 10 investments in every continent, and the clients are generating over 6,000 million dollars and impacting 10+ thousand lives. His clients start to grow and scale high from seven-figure programs into an investment vehicle of multiple income equity streams.
