In this episode, we have a frank discussion with Brian Simmons, Vice President of NDS Solutions, a family-owned, nationally ranked business-to-business print and promotional products provider. Initially, the company believed their only need was a succession plan for the transition of leadership from father to son. However, once the engagement began, an assessment revealed numerous opportunities for improvement. Their partner created a comprehensive strategic business roadmap, an accountability process, and provided 9-months of executive coaching, ultimately revitalizing the entire company. Tune in to hear how NDS Solutions went beyond succession planning to achieve transformative growth.
