Andrew Wright, CEO of Franklin Street, joins Owen LaFave to discuss how the growth of his business led to the evolution of his leadership style. Andrew started Franklin Street at age 26 and expanded from mortgage banking into insurance once he recognized its critical role in real estate transactions. Today, Franklin Street continues focusing on strategic growth while maintaining cultural alignment. Andrew’s approach to leadership has also changed, from managing a small team to scaling a business into a major firm. His leadership style is direct and demanding but supportive, focusing on fostering independence while maintaining high standards. Now Andrew prioritizes mentorship over control and recognizes that growth comes from allowing others to make mistakes and develop resilience. If you’ve ever wondered how to build a lasting, purpose-driven organization while preparing the future leaders who will eventually take your place, don’t miss this enlightening conversation.
