There's a popular African proverb that says, "If you want to go fast - Go Alone. If you want to go far - Go Together." Many times, visionaries want to go fast themselves, but they get frustrated when they don't know how to develop and empower a team to go with them.
David Cowling of Sharper Process helps visionaries and businesses empower their work teams by building the right processes. David talks in-depth about the importance of purpose and process to grow your work team into becoming leaders which will help you achieve your vision. There's great danger if you don't have a clear purpose or process in your business. Without process, your team will fail in the long run. David helps visionaries identify gaps in business processes, and he helps business leaders learn how to implement processes in a business.
