Your Business Style: The Muddy Fish vs. The Clean Fish

Muddy Fish or Clean Fish: Understanding Your Business Style

Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. Our topic today is -  Are you a Muddy Fish or are you a Clean Fish? I wonder.  

  1. So, a muddy fish. Are you the kind of person that is fast-paced and outgoing? You're not very detail-oriented. You're results-driven.  You like things new, trendy, flashy. You tend to be on the business development and visionary side of the business.  

  2. Or are you a clean fish?  You like the water clean.  You like systems and processes and predictability and consistency and high-quality.  You're not necessarily the front-of-the-house person like those muddy fish. You're more a back-of-the-house person, a clean fish. You like things well planned out very systematic so you can be very predictable and deliver consistent high quality results. 

Which one are you doing?  Because you will find that there are pros and cons to both. Muddy fish you are usually great at the front of the house, clean fish you are at the back of the house. Which one are you? I want to hear it.  

 Like and follow this podcast so you can learn more. My name is Carl Gould and this has been your #70secondCEO.
