It’s hard to believe, but we’re at the last topic of our Growth Strategies Masterclass. At this point, we’ve had guests share their expertise on the following:

 

  1. Vetting and validating growth ideas,
  2. Creating a strategic growth plan that includes validated ideas,
  3. Developing project plans to implement your company’s growth strategy,
  4. Growing your business through strategic partnerships, and
  5. Building your business to sell it for maximum value.

 

With all the planning tools we’ve learned for strategically growing our businesses, there’s still the possibility that our plans may not unfold the way we envisioned. Our ability to handle unforeseen events or challenges that can halt our plans determines whether we’ll stay in the entrepreneurial race.

 

The real question to ask yourself is, “Are you comfortable with potentially having to pivot?”

 

This is what our next guest, Christina Barsi, is here to talk to us about. As a former actor turned entrepreneur and owner of a successful podcast production company, she’s a shining example of what can happen when you intentionally integrate decision-making and fulfillment into your  entrepreneurial endeavors.

 

Barsi’s career transition experiences as a compelling example for entrepreneurs seeking to establish a personal infrastructure that resonates with their passions.

 

In part 1 of this two-part episode, Barsi explains why:
