Great contracting companies start at the top with leadership. Leadership sets the tone for the rest of the team, putting talented people in a position to excel and helping bring the best out of those who could use a little more attention.

In the first international episode(!) of the Contractor Coffee Club podcast, Mark Matteson is joined by legendary industry consultant Gary Elekes. Gary shares some tried and true leadership strategies and coaching tactics he's picked up over his three-plus decades in home services.
