Michael Curry & Keith Burns - Earn The Right to Lead - Ep.105

<p><strong>My guests on this episode are</strong> <strong>Michael Curry and</strong> <strong>Keith Burns</strong> <strong>who together have acquired</strong> <strong>11 diagnostic</strong> <strong>radiation and other physics services businesses</strong> <strong>since 2014 through their platform</strong> <strong>Apex Physics Partners.</strong></p><p><strong> This episode is</strong> <strong>loaded with wisdom and insights. I had a number of alternative</strong> <strong>titles I considered based on quotes for the conversation like &#34;the</strong> <strong>CEO of Delta doesn&#39;t know how to fly&#34; or</strong> &#34;<strong>putting out fires with your face.&#34; Ultimately,</strong> <strong>earning the right to lead felt right as we talk extensively about their experience being first-time CEOs in an industry they had no background in, but through it all, they&#39;ve</strong> <strong>managed to build</strong> <strong>an impressive track record at</strong> <strong>Apex with an ever-growing team. </strong></p><p><strong>Over the course of this episode, we</strong> <strong>discuss the</strong> <strong>concept of the messy</strong> <strong>middle between the start and ultimate success of a business, signal</strong> <strong>versus noise and</strong> <strong>learning about the company you&#39;ve acquired, how to know</strong> <strong>you&#39;re a good leader,</strong> <strong>letting go of control, and</strong> <strong>building a</strong> <strong>culture that grows. Enjoy.</strong></p><p><span>Listen weekly and follow the show on </span><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/think-like-an-owner/id1445929750" rel="nofollow">Apple Podcasts</a><span>, </span><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/3Fbv9d4HpDwuO4MOPvgdvO?si=bfa67fb76c654755" rel="nofollow">Spotify</a><span>, </span><a href="https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5yZWRjaXJjbGUuY29tLzI1ODM4YjdlLTdlZTgtNGZjMC05ZjU0LTViNjJkZDNmZTBjNg" rel="nofollow">Google Podcasts</a><span>, </span><a href="https://www.stitcher.com/show/think-like-an-owner"
