Why Most Consulting Businesses Stall Before They Grow

Most consulting businesses don’t fail because of competition—they fail because they become too complex, too early. And here’s how it shows up: You add more services, more tools, more “strategy”… and everything starts slowing down instead of speeding up. So instead of things getting easier, everything feels heavier. In this session, I’ll take a concept called the “Founder’s Mentality” (used by high-growth companies) and show you how to apply it to simplify your business and start getting real traction. We’ll go through real examples, practical frameworks, and I’ll answer your questions live. If you feel stuck between “I know I can do this” and “why isn’t this working yet,” this is for you.

48 Questions on Careers, AI, and Entrepreneurship—Answered Without the Fluff

Entry-level roles are shrinking. AI is taking over routine work. And doing what’s assigned is no longer enough to stand out. For students, the rules you’ve been trained to follow—study hard, get good grades, land a job—are no longer enough on their own. In fact, many graduates are preparing for a job market that no longer exists. But this isn’t just a student problem. Across the board, the people who get ahead early are not the ones who wait for direction—they’re the ones who take ownership. So what actually works now? I’ve collected 48 real questions from graduating seniors, recent grads, and early professionals—covering entrepreneurship, careers, AI, and personal growth. In this podcast, I’ll break them down across 6 key areas: - Entrepreneurship & business strategy - Success factors & common mistakes - Personal journey & motivation - Career advice & skill development - Lifestyle & time management - Resilience & pivoting No theory. No fluff. Just what I’ve learned building multiple businesses across several tech waves over the past 30 years—including one that scaled to 8 figures and was acquired. If you graduated recently or are graduating soon—or you're  already feeling the impact of AI on your career or business—this will give you clear direction on what to focus on next.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
