363. Behind Every Visionary CEO is a Great 2nd-In-Command with Richard Shaull of Unleashed

What if you could free up 30 hours in your work—all while helping your business reach new revenue heights? Many entrepreneurs know what it’s like to feel constantly busy, putting out fires, and only able to work on the things directly in front of them rather than the work that matters most. Richard Shaull is the co-founder and CEO of Unleashed, where he helps entrepreneurs focus on finding a 2nd-In-Command to take that busy work off their plate and allow them to get to that incredibly important work. They believe that every great visionary needs a great operations counterpart and that by pairing the right people you can unleash their full potential. We discuss why every CEO needs a great 2nd-In-Command, how to find the right person for you, and how to identify if you might make a good 2nd-In-Command yourself.
