In this week's episode, we are joined by Amanda HarNess. Amanda is the Founder and Executive Operations Strategist of her company, Business Excelerated. She works as her client's Fractional COO who focuses on operational efficiencies as well as people's performance. Her 11-year experience in leadership and people management in the health care industry allowed her to experience both ends.

She said that having a support system is integral for your business. Surrounding yourself with a group of people who always have your back is a huge help. With an accountability partner, for example, you have someone who will make sure you are doing what you are supposed to do.

When helping a client, Amanda starts the conversation by redefining what does being a leader truly means. It's important that both sides are in alignment with their vision. According to her, a leader is someone who knows when to ask for help, knows when to be vulnerable, and lastly, know that a leader always doesn't always have to be right. In fact, she believes that the way to be really in control is to let go a bit of your business.

She mentioned her three rules in life which she also applies in business.
1. Don't panic.
2. Be tenacious.
3. Celebrate things and have fun!

Being an entrepreneur requires a lot of effort but it doesn't have to s*ck.

Tune in to learn more on how to scale your business the fun way!
