Every word matters more than we know.

Every business hits a wall. When you do, it is time to stop, learn, change and grow.

In this episode of the show you meet two men who said, "If I don't do this, my life will be incomplete." They dropped out of corporate America and started a business. But, in their 13th year, they hit the wall. And when they came out of their soul-searching period, they redefined themselves and then their business. The results were extraordinary.

When they hired people to work with them, these new people started as team players. There were no more "employees." There was no, "You work for me; do as I say." And then as the business needed middle management, there were no bosses, only coaches.

People are happier when they are learning and they learn best from coaching, not bossing.
