Description
Welcome to the Bulletproof Startups Podcast, where we help business owners and CEOs become conscious leaders and build a power team so they can let go, get strategic, and know they are adding the most value possible to their company every single day. I am your host, Simone Janssen, and this podcast is about one thing only, becoming the real CEO of your business by building leveraged teams.
You've built a great product or service, but although you have a team you are still in everything. Your time is spent in the weeds, and you are leaving money and opportunity on the table because you don't know how to establish clarity, shift responsibility, and create accountability. If you want to know how to change that, you are in the right place.
All this information is 100% free, so please subscribe to and review our podcast.
