259 | Inside StratPlan: Business Blind Spots And Leadership ROI

 

How a New President Transformed His Company—And Himself

When Magnus stepped into the role of President at Consultwebs, he had the title… but no idea what to actually do.

“I didn’t go to ‘how to be a President’ school. I didn’t know what I was supposed to do from 8 to 5.”

Like so many leaders, he knew his business, he knew his clients—but the role of president was a completely different beast. The result?
Long nights. Constant chaos. No clear direction for himself or his team.

Then he discovered what was actually holding the business back: blind spots.

On today’s episode of The Chris LoCurto Show, you’ll hear how Magnus identified those blind spots, aligned his leadership team, and almost doubled the size of his business, dramatically improved communication, boosted profitability, and even landed on the Inc. 5000 List of Fastest Growing Companies in the U.S.

And he did it without a “business degree in presidency.”
He did it by changing how he led.


What You’ll Learn in This Episode

  • Why “rinse and repeat” quietly sabotages growth
  • How to transform leadership meetings from updates into solution factories
  • Closing the gap between what you know vs. what you need to know
  • Why “go-do leadership” destroys team ownership
  • How fear hides inside business decisions
  • Why client investment increases when your culture aligns
  • The one thing every leader needs in their corner

Why Outside Perspective Changes Everything

Magnus put it plainly:

“We would not have discovered the issues without outside eyes and ears.”

And the results?

  • Business revenue: almost doubled
  • Team size: nearly doubled
  • Communication: drastically improved
  • Leadership unity: stronger than ever
  • Bottom line + customer service: massive improvements

“If you’re NOT going to implement what you take from StratPlan, you’re wasting your money. If you are going to implement and hold your team accountable—it’s a no-brainer.”


BONUS: Should You Send a Bio With Your Resume?

Leaders ask this all the time.

A resume gives your work history.
A bio highlights your most meaningful wins.

Should you send both?
Yes—if you explain why.
A well-written bio makes you stand out without appearing arrogant, and shows exactly how you’d add value to the business.
