11 - The Importance of Speed and Decisiveness in Business with Effective Performance Strategies' Ryan Weiss

Your host, Scott Bywater, talks with the President of Effective Performance Strategies, Ryan Weiss. Ryan's journey began with a simple lawn care business, a venture that taught him the fundamentals of entrepreneurship. But his transition from a sole consultant to a global executive truly tested his mettle. Ryan candidly discussed the anxiety and stress that came with the fear of losing clients, a challenge many entrepreneurs face. However, he could adapt and evolve his business model which enabled him to overcome these hurdles.

The COVID-19 pandemic, a crisis that shook the very foundations of many businesses, was a pivotal moment for Ryan. He shared how it impacted his approach to client engagement and the necessity of building robust systems and workflows to ensure sustainable growth. This period of uncertainty underscored the importance of adaptability and the need to balance immediate client needs with long-term strategic planning.

One of the most enlightening aspects of the discussion was Ryan's introduction of the Optics system. This innovative approach focuses on the intersection of people and processes to address organizational challenges. Ryan's company has developed 34 different processes that have closed hundreds of gaps for clients, showcasing the system's repeatability and scalability.

Ryan shared an anecdote about an executive vice president who, recognizing the effectiveness of their processes, offered him a job. This story highlights the tangible impact of well-designed systems on an organization's efficiency and the market recognition of such value.
