In this episode, host Dave Gulas dives deep with Pat Alacqua, a seasoned entrepreneur known for guiding businesses through every stage of growth. Pat shares how his early years working in his grandfather’s grocery store shaped his approach to business, and why being impatient can actually help, and sometimes hurt, entrepreneurial progress.
Pat breaks down his “three Cs” approach: Clarify, Chart, and Co-Align, offering hands-on techniques for managing rapid growth, overcoming analysis paralysis, and empowering teams. He also explains the five key business growth phases, idea, startup, growth, maturity, and sustainable/decline, helping entrepreneurs identify which stage they’re in and what pivots are essential for moving forward.
Listeners will gain valuable perspective on shifting from being a doer to leading a team, developing the right mindset for scaling, and handling the emotional challenges that come with growth. Pat’s stories, including lessons from the trade show industry and building a youth sports academy, deliver real-world insights you can apply today. If you want practical, experience-based advice on navigating entrepreneurial challenges and transforming obstacles into opportunities, this conversation is for you.
