Gary Engels teaches business owners and entrepreneurs the disciplined sequence of steps that lead to lasting success.
His wisdom isn't drawn from an MBA program or corporate leadership seminars — it's forged from decades on the mats. "Sensei Gary" is a serial entrepreneur, app creator, and a 4th-degree black belt in Taekwondo.
Gary's list of ventures and partnerships is long. Among them, he is the founder of Leadership Academy, a martial arts school dedicated to developing leadership skills in students of all ages, and the creator of the Legacy Missions app, which helps users build positive daily habits.
He also serves as CEO of MyGig, which connects businesses with essential services in accounting, marketing, HR, IT, and financial optimization.
Unlike many entrepreneurs who obsess over selling, Gary has built his career on service. His approach begins with a simple question: "How can I help?" Service builds trust, trust builds relationships, and relationships drive revenue. It's a principle that has kept his martial arts school thriving for 20 years — a milestone that very few such schools attain.
So, join us this week in the "Monday Morning Radio Dojo." Remove your shoes, step onto the mat, and begin mastering the "business katas" that will make you a fierce marketplace competitor.
Monday Morning Radio is hosted by the father-son duo of Dean and Maxwell Rotbart.
