What happens when everything you were told to do stops working — and you have to figure it out at 23? In this episode of Winners Find A Way, Coach Trent M. Clark sits down with Tony Wilkins, Northwestern and University of Chicago Booth graduate, longtime angel investor, executive coach, cancer survivor, and author of The Art of Angel Investing. Tony grew up as the oldest of six boys, built his career as an electrical engineer at Chrysler Corporation in 1979, and was laid off after just one year, along with 300 others. At 23, with everything he thought he had figured out suddenly gone, he made a decision that would shape the rest of his life — stop solving for a job and start solving for financial independence. From there, he went on to earn his MBA at Booth, build a career in high-level banking and finance, become a founding member of Hyde Park Angels in Chicago, and invest in early-stage companies like Spot Hero (acquired by Uber), Cameo, and Nutrasense. This conversation is about more than investing. Tony and Trent dig into what it really means to be the CEO of yourself — knowing what you are solving for, being ruthless about what you can control, and letting go of what you can't. Tony shares how the layoff that shattered his plans at 23 was actually the best thing that ever happened to him, why he secretly applied to Harvard Business School nine months into his dream job, and how a mentee half his age gave him one of the most powerful leadership phrases he's ever heard: "I am firm in my mission and flexible in my methods." This episode is a reminder that winners are not people who never face setbacks. Winners are the ones who learn, adjust, lead, and find a way. In This Episode, We Discuss: How getting laid off at 23 became Tony's most important life lesson Why you must know what you are really solving for — not just what you want right now The CEO of your mindset and owning your results completely Being ruthless about what you can control and letting go of everything you can't How to get started as an angel investor — even without Silicon Valley connections The concept of "triumph or tuition" and why every investment teaches you something How change, AI, and the next generation will shape the future of leadership Key Takeaways ✨ Know what you're really solving for It's not enough to want a good job or a big title. Tony asks every client: "What are you really solving for?" Keep asking why — five times if you have to — until you get to the truth beneath the surface answer. ✨ Be the CEO of yourself You are responsible for your results. No one is coming to save you. Tony learned this at 23 when Chrysler cut 300 people without warning. The sooner you take full ownership of your direction, the sooner your life changes. ✨ Be ruthless about what you can control Tony's rule: be ruthless about what you can control and ruthlessly ignore everything you can't. Gravity exists. Corporate layoffs happen. AI is here. Your energy goes toward what you can actually move. ✨ Triumph or tuition — just get in the water You cannot learn to swim from a book. You cannot become an angel investor without writing a check. Every investment either gives you a triumph or pays your tuition. Either way, you are learning. The key is to start. ✨ Firm in your mission, flexible in your methods A young mentee said this to Tony at the end of a coaching call, and it stopped him cold. Your mission is the non-negotiable. How do you get there? That can evolve. The best leaders hold both at once.

What's up folks, welcome to our 4 part series of Crawling THROUGH THE DUNGEON OF MARTECH ARCHITECTUREYou've arrived at Part1 : The Fall of CRM Gravity (00:00) - Intro (00:57) - In This Episode (01:31) - Sponsor: MoEngage (02:28) - Sponsor: Knak (04:53) - FLOOR 1: Why the CRM Lost Its Authority (06:09) - Why Every Team Moved Into the CRM (And How It Lost Its Authority) (13:57) - Why Sharing CRM Data Always Breaks It (18:02) - Why CRM Gravity Outlasts the Technical Argument (24:04) - BOSS BATTLE: The False Truth King (25:44) - Sponsor: GrowthLoop (26:48) - Sponsor: GrowthBench (34:56) - Why Centralizing Data Only to Copy It Out Defeats the Purpose (39:31) - BOSS BATTLE: The Export Hydra (40:53) - How to Move to a Warehouse-Native Architecture (46:36) - How to Achieve Portable Audiences (56:52) - How CLI/MCP Servers Are Changing Marketing Stack Integration ---------------------------------------------------------------------------OPENING---------------------------------------------------------------------------Welcome to the descent into the Dungeon of Martech Architecture, a 4-part journey through the unhinged and constantly expanding world of marketing technology.As a massive sci-fi fan currently reading the Dungeon Crawler Carl books, I have used their level-by-level progression as the direct inspiration for this 'dungeon crawl' analogy, and while you don't need to know the books to enjoy the journey, those who do will recognize some of the gaming lore and achievement-style rewards woven into our descent. This will be educational and helpful for anyone that works and builds martech, and hopefully it's also a bit fun. Without a doubt though, it will be weird. Here is your quick guide to the floors ahead:Episode 1: CRM GravityYou'll conquer the source of truth and discover that the data warehouse replaces the CRM with portable audiences.Episode 2: The Eye of ContextYou'll learn why AI fails without shared meaning, why context engineering is the layer between data and agent authority, and why the industry built the wrong kind of meaning infrastructure in 2012.Episode 3: The Correlation MasqueradeYou'll escape the correlation trap and build the causal memory layer that separates agents that optimize correctly from agents that confidently scale the wrong behavior.Episode 4: The Dispatch TowerYou'll tackle the governance chaos of 30 vendors all claiming authority, and confront the interface decision that most organizations already made without realizing it.Let's start our descent.---Be honest: when was the last time you pulled up a number in your CRM and actually trusted it? like… no second-guessing, no “that feels a bit off”… just total confidence?Maybe you didn't really have time to double check the logic behind the number and you were too excited to share the positive results. So you forwarded it to a peer. Or maybe you've been in that meeting… 2 people arguing over a number, both pull it up in the same CRM, and somehow get 2 completely different answers… and no one can explain which one's actually right.We've all been there, we've felt it. That dark, creeping dread. When “which number is right?” gets answered with “well… it depends who built the report,”. They know it. You know it. The CRM admin knows it. Everyone in the room knows it. You don't have a source of truth… just a CRM that's turned into a dumping ground of lost updates that have slowly compounded into competing versions of reality.Call it counterfeit truth or data mirage… I call it bad data. Data that has the appearance of authority without the actual authority behind it. It's everywhere in the modern marketing stack. And the CRM is often where it starts.That's where our first boss is hiding. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------FLOOR 1: Why the CRM Lost Its Authority---------------------------------------------------------------------------If you're in B2B or B2C the first floor looks a bit different but only because of terminology. In B2B the 2 cornerstone platforms are the CRM and the MAP: the Customer Relationship Management software and the Marketing Automation Platform. Sales works in the former, marketing works in the latter, ops is stuck making the two talk to each other.In B2C though, for some reason you all decided that the MAP is actually called a CRM and the B2B version of the CRM isn't really needed because there's often no sales team, instead it's a customer support or product led motion.In both scenarios though the same thing happens to that central platform. It gets inherited by teams that weren't its original audience. It accumulates data it wasn't designed to hold. And it becomes the unofficial source of truth for the whole business without anyone explicitly deciding that was a good idea.Why Every Team Moved Into the CRM (And How It Lost Its Authority)So how did we get here? CRMs were built for one job: tracking the sales motion. Contacts, deals, stages, activity logs. They were good at that job. Then marketing moved in. Marketers ruin everything. But leadership is worse. Leadership started pulling board metrics from the CRM. Then the product team added usage data. Then we added ABM and account signals, and we had to push that data somewhere. Then AI interactions needed a home.What a mess.Everyone needed a record of the customer, and the CRM was already there. It's literally called the Customer Relationship Manager. So it became the shared folder everyone saved their customer work into, even though it was designed for a very specific kind of work.The problem is that once data is stored in a CRM, it starts reflecting the team that works there. Sales edits the contact. Marketing overwrites a field. Customer success adds a note. Each edit is local logic applied to what everyone assumes is shared truth. The data looks official but you know deep down that the authority behind it belongs to whoever edited it last.Meg Gowell, Head of Marketing at Elly.ai and former Head of Marketing at Typeform crossed over from a Salesforce-first organization to one where the warehouse had already taken over:MEG GOWELL, Episode 155“The tricky part of our tech stack is that I'm used to Salesforce or HubSpot being the single source of truth. Here, our core business is represented more in the data warehouse than anywhere else, and Salesforce supports the sales-led part of the business.Understanding how those data pieces come together is something I'm still working through. I've only been here three and a half or four months, and it's tricky. The biggest challenge is figuring out how the self-serve and sales-led motions fit together. In PLG, they have to serve one another. If your tech stack doesn't support that, it becomes really hard.We run into questions like: do we have all the right data points in the right places for people to act on them? Do we know everything we need to know? I've really experienced how important the underlying data structure is, and how important consistency across tools is.In the past, there was this wide spectrum. In one area, we had a very advanced multi-touch attribution system. In another area, it was very basic reporting. So there was this weird mix of super deep and super surface-level, but without an underlying structure that fully worked.I think that happens to a lot of companies when they're growing fast. You take opportunities where you see them, and you move quickly. Now we're taking a step back and saying: we really ...

ACOFAE Podcast Presents: Atmosphere: Jessica's Choice! It's Jessica Marie's half birthday and here on ACOFAE that means that she gets to choose a piece of media to cover that maybe ACOFAE wouldn't normally cover. Her choice this year is "Atmosphere: A Love Story" by Taylor Jenkins Reid. A story about space, about women, about relationships, and about what happens when you finally accept all the parts of yourself that you've discovered along the way. Laura Marie actually chose this book out of a list of options that Jessica Marie suggested, and she has strong feelings about rule following. No, really! Rules are important in SPACE! They are there for a reason!

First episode in separate studios! Went well, and we had a fun discussion about the recent JRE Eric Weinstein episode, with the possibility that the science of Physics has been stalled, or purposefully distracted, by the beautiful but seemingly useless mathematics of String Theory. Is it possible that "real physics" simply went "black"...that work is being done in secret that is actually making progress in unlocking the secrets of the universe?

RTB's sister podcast, Novel Dialogue, spoke recently with Aaron Gwyn. He is the author of four novels: The World Beneath, Wynne's War, and, most recently, two wonderfully linked historical novels, All God's Children, which won the Oklahoma Book award, and The Cannibal Owl. In his conversation with Sean McCann of Wesleyan (A Pinnacle of Feeling: American Literature and Presidential Government and Gumshoe America: Hard-Boiled Crime Fiction and the Rise and Fall of New Deal Liberalism), we learn that Robert Lemmons is a real historical figure and so is Levi English. One way to grasp Gwyn's achievement is to consider the contrast between his durably realist work and Cormac McCarthy's 1985 Blood Meridian. Much as Aaron and Sean admire that novel, McCarthy's characters strike them as monstrous and incredible. How about Charles Portis's True Grit, asks John? Aaron loves it for its ventriloquizing power, and its truth-loving willingness to weave in unsettling back stories like Rooster Cogburn's ties to Quantrill's Rangers, an eerily modern pro-Confederate terrorist paramilitary. In NOvel Dialogue's "signature question," we learn why Aaron's favorite teacher was Robert Hill, Pink-Floyd-loving drummer and perennial inspiration (audio here). Mentioned in this episode: Richard Slotkin's notion of “the man who knows Indians” comes from Gunfighter Nation Mark Twain, A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1889) Herman Melville, Moby Dick William Faulkner, Absalom, Absalom! Toni Morrison, Beloved Thomas Pynchon, Gravity's Rainbow John Williams, Stoner (but also Butcher's Crossing –-which John loves— and Augustus, which did indeed split the National Book Award (not the Pulitzer) in 1973 with John Barth's Chimera.

Have you ever noticed how some people have a different voice or way of speaking when they're talking to a baby or perhaps a pet? That's an example of situational behavior - changing something, in this case the manner of speaking - based on the situation. But situational behavior isn't always innocent or harmless. We're in week 6 of a sermon series we've titled, Gravity: Breaking Free From the Weight of Sin. This week, we're looking at what we're calling situational sins... those choices we make based on external circumstances - which set of friends we're with, whether or not the kids are around, or if anybody will even know we did it. The problem is, basing our behavioral choices on an external standard completely misses the point. Because that's not at all what Jesus is after. Join us this Sunday at 11 AM as we begin our series on sin. You'll find us online by clicking the "Join Us Sunday" button on our website, or connect with us via our YouTube channel. Or come worship with us in person! Arrive early and enjoy coffee, cookies and conversation in the Lobby. We do know that 11 AM on Sunday doesn't work for everyone.

James Kurz talks about hidden bottlenecks in the AI buildout and data gravity as a headwind. He says the moving of data is becoming a challenge because most things are being bult in “data deserts.” James believes the permanent storage they need for the AI buildout is being bottlenecked by storage.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

A poet who has lived two decades with incurable cancer on what faith sounds like when God feels more absent than present. Christian Wiman joins Mark Labberton to talk poetry, suffering, and friendship. "The presence of God, less so. I experience the absence more than the presence." In this episode with Mark Labberton, Wiman reflects on writing "Every Riven Thing" after a single church service, surviving a last-resort clinical trial, and the friendship behind his new book with Miroslav Volf. Together they discuss the paradox at the heart of poetry, grief that explodes into joy, and why joy asks something of us. They also weigh Heschel and Lewis's clarity, the friendless American male, and chance turned into destiny by constant choice. Episode Highlights "The presence of God, less so. I experience the absence more than the presence." "I would not let go of my despair, even though the poems were showing me something else." "Joy asks something of us on the other side." "The relief came from the communion between people." "I think that that was quite a shock to me to realize that we were each envying what the other had." About Christian Wiman Christian Wiman is a poet, essayist, editor, and translator, and the Clement-Muehl Professor of Communication Arts at Yale Divinity School, where he teaches religion and literature with the Yale Institute of Sacred Music. From 2003 to 2013 he edited Poetry, the oldest magazine of verse in the English-speaking world, tripling its circulation and earning two National Magazine Awards. He is the author, editor, or translator of more than a dozen books, including Every Riven Thing, the memoirs My Bright Abyss and He Held Radical Light, and the genre-blending Zero at the Bone. A former Guggenheim Fellow with two honorary doctorates, he has written candidly about faith and a long struggle with incurable cancer.

It's time for the Season 5 finale of The LIUniverse, which means another episode of ChuckGPT where we answer our audience's most vexing questions – this time via video from our Patreon Patrons. And to help us answer those questions, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome back fan favorite guest and expert on ancient civilizations, author and educator Hannah Liu, M.Ed. As always, though, we start off with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing: the completion of DESI's 5-year survey mapping millions of objects in the universe. The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument completed the survey ahead of schedule, so there's still time to map millions more. Hannah tells us about mapping the universe in antiquity, starting with the first star catalog created by the Babylonians about 3,000 years ago. You'll hear about the Venus tablet from the first millennium BC, Chinese star charts from the Tang dynasty, and Atlas, the mythological Titan who was the “first astrologer.” Returning to the DESI survey, Chuck talks about the change in the dark energy content of the universe that we didn't really expect. Allen, our resident mathematician, talks about the velocity of universal expansion and a concept called “the jerk.” Then it's time for audience questions, and for this episode, we're doing something new. Both audience questions come from Patreon Patrons, and both are in video format so you can actually see our fans asking Chuck the questions – if you're watching rather than listening, that is. Our first question comes from Patron Lee Dubey, who asks, “Since atoms are mostly empty space, could all matter, including measuring devices, almost undetectably consume minimal space, warping the space around it? If so, could that cause gravity, and could the shrinkage cause a redshift related to dark energy?” We're not even going to try and summarize the explanation from Allen and Chuck here, except to say that the ensuing conversation includes the physics concept of “unparticles.” Hannah brings up Democritus, who, along with his teacher Leucippus in ancient Greece, first theorized the existence of atoms. Our next question comes from our Patreon Patron Lee Williams, who asks, “If we live in a simulation, is it correct to assume that there's an architect? Could there be a simulation without an architect?” Given that there's no scientific answer to either of these questions, Chuck turns to Hannah for enlightenment. While she explains that the question of whether we live in a simulation is a modern concept, Hanna discusses how humanity grapples with the questions of existence and higher powers, and why people engage with religion, magic, or quantum entanglement in the first place. In the free-wheeling, far-ranging conversation that follows, Allen brings up how we create simulations now, by creating processes and letting them run, to offer some perspective on the role of the architect. And yes, H.P. Lovecraft, “The Devil and Daniel Webster,” “Frankenstein: The Modern Prometheus,” and even Spider-Man somehow make it into the discussion. And that's it for this season of The LIUniverse. We want to thank all of you for your questions, your curiosity, and your help in keeping this experiment going. As Chuck always says, “Thank you for being a part of The LIUniverse.” We hope you enjoyed this episode, and this season, of The LIUniverse. If you do, please support us on Patreon.

The week starts with Dwayne Johnson's "The Red Pill" — the most honest structural diagnosis of Oregon's innovation economy I've read in years, from someone who's been inside the system for two decades, not outside it. Oregon fell from #7 to #41 in CNBC's Top States for Business across the Brown era; Oregon got second in semiconductor productivity and 0.002% of federal CHIPS R&D funds. His phrase: "Oregon runs on cliques, not networks." Then Friday, Engine's Innovation Flywheel report lands — four dimensions for a healthy innovation ecosystem, three of which Portland already has covered, and one — Center of Gravity — that's the exact tripwire Dwayne was pointing at. Plus Expensify ships an MCP server that lets your AI agent talk directly to your expense data, Missing Middle Housing Fund's Nate Wildfire joins the Housing Voices podcast, and Portland moves up five spots to #17 in the Financial Times ranking of best U.S. cities for foreign business — Boston at the top, Seattle slipping.CHAPTERS:00:00 Portland startup news04:15 Dwayne Johnson on Portland's archipelago 08:20 Engine's Innovation Flywheel14:10 Financial Times ranks Oregon #1716:17 SecretsLINKS:Long-time innovation ecosystem builder Dwayne Johnson — https://siliconflorist.com/2026/06/08/long-time-innovation-ecosystem-builder-dwayne-johnson-shares-insights-on-oregon-economic-woes/Dwayne Johnson on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/drfortune/Your AI agent can now talk to your expense data with the new Expensify MCP — https://siliconflorist.com/2026/06/08/your-ai-agent-can-now-talk-to-your-expense-data-with-the-new-expensify-mcp/Expensify MCP — https://expensify.com/mcpPortland's Missing Middle Housing Fund joins Housing Voices — https://siliconflorist.com/2026/06/08/portlands-missing-middle-housing-fund-joins-housing-voices/Missing Middle Housing Fund — https://www.missingmiddlehousing.fund/Portland moves up five spots in Financial Times "best US places for foreign businesses" — https://siliconflorist.com/2026/06/09/portland-moves-up-five-spots-in-financial-times-best-us-places-for-foreign-businesses/FT-Nikkei ranking — https://www.ft.com/content/3fb85af1-d581-4f43-b962-a1d79160cdecUsing Engine's "Innovation Flywheel" to benefit the Portland startup community — https://siliconflorist.com/2026/06/12/using-engines-innovation-flywheel-to-benefit-the-portland-startup-community/The Foundations of an Innovation Flywheel (Engine) — https://www.engine.is/news/category/the-foundations-of-an-innovation-flywheelApply to lead the Portland Metro Region Innovation Hub https://jobs.hrc.pdx.edu/postings/49951FIND RICK TUROCZY ON THE INTERNET AT…- https://patreon.com/turoczy- https://linkedin.com/in/turoczyABOUT SILICON FLORIST ----------For nearly two decades, Rick Turoczy has published Silicon Florist, a blog, newsletter, and podcast that covers entrepreneurs, founders, startups, entrepreneurship, tech, news, and events in the Portland, Oregon, startup community.

First, let's get this clear - typing with a smashed finger is hard. On the plus side, it's not Vaughn's finger, which is now missing (keep your hands inside the truck on-trail). Another warning: seatbelts are good (especially when Audiots are known to be in the area). This episode's one of those gearhead-sink specials, where everything is interesting and there's too much geek goodness for one (Garage) hour. We've got black paint on Scott's 911 and Ryan's B6, black music (does Black Sabbath quality?), Ferrari missing the electric-car boat in the most expensive (and ugliest) way possible (...introducing the Ferrari Aztek!), a fix for politicians who missed the Freedom Train and were trying to put spyware in new cars (can't flee the mutant eskimo polar deer monsters if the car won't start), and a bit of an over-the-shoulder anniversary look at the hypnotic tale of a man who couldn't take it any longer, so he built a tank out a bulldozer. There's also a 787 that narrowly missed FALLING on the runway-lights guy, technology (still not on our side), the robin that keeps pooping on the mailbox, and the Professors (not the Torquays - next time).

I think this was one of my most enjoyable dialogues in our What's new series. Maybe Sabine and I are getting more used to each other's cadence and interests or maybe it was the subject matter. Either way, I think you will find this to be a fascinating and provocative discussion of science at the forefront, and at the not-so-forefront, because that science is interesting too!We began our discussion describing a new finding of a Giant Ring of galaxies billions of light years across in the sky. The key questions are: Is it real? And is it surprising? We both have slightly different takes on this.Next we described a new measurement of the strength of gravity on scales from 80 to 800 million light years in distance. And guess what? Gravity falls off just like Newton predicted! This may seem like a big yawn, but one of the most popular models that claims to do away with dark matter would imply that Gravity would fall off differently on these scales. Does this new result kill that idea? Stay tuned.Microsoft, which has cried wolf a number of times so far when it comes to something called Majorana qubits as the basis of a new viable quantum computer just published a new paper claiming they finally have it. Sabine and I discuss why we are both still skeptical, but why the effort is worth it.Next, CERN, the large European particle physics laboratory, and the world particle physics community seem to have converged on plans for building a huge new accelerator in the current CERN site.. this time involving an underground ring 91 km in circumference, in which electrons and positrons would collide to explore the detailed properties of the Higgs particle. Is the effort worth it? Again, Sabine and I have slightly different takes on this.Fusion power, which we have talked about in a number of earlier episodes, continues to tempt humanity with the promise of unlimited energy. Many people, myself included, have tended to argue that fusion seems to be 25 years in the future, and may always be 25 years in the future. But many new efforts are underway, so who knows. Unfortunately, a group of economists has analyzed fusion in the context of other large energy programs and have argued that even if we can achieve it, it may not be as economically viable as many claim. Finally, one day Richard Feynman went to a Thai restaurant with his young companion Ralph Leighton, and wondered what he should order. Should it be the same old dish he loved or something new. An equation filled napkin later, and he had the answer. Fifty years later some cognitive scientists resurrected Feynman's napkin and explained it, and argued it might have important implications in other social situations. Such is the power of science.As always, an ad-free video version of this podcast is also available to paid Critical Mass subscribers.

Episode Overview Michael Levitt sits down with executive advisor Chris March to discuss one of the most common yet underaddressed challenges facing founder-led businesses: the founder themselves becoming the primary obstacle to growth. Chris works with organizations generating between $5 million and $20 million in revenue, helping founders identify structural dysfunction, reclaim their time, and build organizations that can operate independently. Key Topics Covered Founder Gravity Chris introduces the concept of "founder gravity," the organizational pull that keeps all decisions, approvals, and responsibilities flowing back to the founder regardless of company size. He explains that structural problems cannot be coached away, and that solving them requires an intentional redesign of how the organization is built. The Delegation Trap A critical distinction emerges between transferring tasks and transferring decision-making authority. Many founders delegate responsibilities without ever relinquishing the sign-off, which trains their teams to wait for approval rather than exercise independent judgment. True delegation requires trusting people with the authority to make decisions, not just the work itself. AI as an Accelerant, Not a Silver Bullet Both Michael and Chris address the widespread rush to adopt AI without first establishing the operational fundamentals it requires. Without documented SOPs and clearly defined workflows, AI cannot fill the gaps. Chris references a Gartner projection that up to 40 to 90 percent of AI projects may be canceled by 2027 due to this misalignment, noting that organizations are often simply accelerating broken systems rather than fixing them. The Business Continuity Test Chris offers a practical diagnostic: if a founder cannot step away from the business for two to three weeks without it breaking down, they do not have a business. They have an expensive job. He uses this exercise with clients as a structural audit to identify exactly where the organization is fragile. Time as a Strategic Asset Chris closes with his single most impactful recommendation: audit how you spend your time. Founders who operate with unstructured, reactive calendars are commonly leaking 10 to 20 hours per week. Time is the one asset that cannot be recovered, and managing it with intention is foundational to everything else. Actionable Takeaways Conduct an honest organizational design review to determine whether your structure still fits the size of your business. Distinguish between delegating tasks and delegating decision-making authority, and make the latter a priority. Document your SOPs and institutional knowledge before introducing any AI or automation tools. Schedule a planned absence and observe what breaks. Use the results as a structural roadmap. Audit your calendar. Reactive scheduling is one of the most common and costly forms of operational drag. About Chris March Chris March is an executive advisor specializing in founder-led organizations. He helps business owners scale past the point where they themselves are the constraint, focusing on organizational structure, operational design, and leadership development.
