About this listen
“Brian’s book inspires both successful individuals and future entrepreneurs, urging them to embrace challenges and pursue growth.”–Wolfgang Puck
Employees that don't take ownership of their work
Friction between departments
Inconsistent results
These are the top challenges that face most businesses today.
These common issues create high turnover and force managers into crisis mode where they're consumed putting out daily fires. Over time, the very nature of the business changes and a new culture emerges; one shaped by the lowest level of acceptable behavior.
Beyond the Hammer approaches these concerns in two highly engaging sections: First, a fictional story of George, a business owner struggling with burnt out employees, high turnover, and frustrated customers. Listeners follow George as he discovers five foundational pillars of leadership that have the power to build teams that perform at a high level, consistently.
The second section shifts from storytelling to strategy, providing an actionable path to weaving these 5 pillars into any business, enabling leaders to integrate these principles into their daily operations seamlessly.
Written for managers and leaders alike, Beyond the Hammer offers a simple yet powerful approach to creating a team where everyone is aligned, and properly positioned to win.

Why have history's greatest minds - from George Washington to Frederick the Great to Ralph Waldo Emerson along with today's top performers, from Super Bowl-winning football coaches to CEOs and celebrities - embraced the wisdom of the ancient Stoics? Because they realize that the most valuable wisdom is timeless and that philosophy is for living a better life, not a classroom exercise. The Daily Stoic offers a daily devotional of Stoic insights and exercises, featuring all-new translations.

The best book I have read in the home service space.
I love how this book was set up with a story that felt very real as a home service business owner. It was then constructed on an actionable plan the second half of the book. If you are in home services as an owner or an employee, you should get your hands on this book. This book will make your company better or it can improve a company that may be struggling. I plan to give this book to all of my employees and go through it together.

MUST READ BUSINESS BOOK!
I was fortunate enough to be part of a dealer network with Brian Gottlieb. Brian was a standout at our yearly convention, not only because his business grew by double digits every year, but because he very generously shared what he learned and was doing to help other companies in the group. Brian would take the time to talk with anyone whether they were a $1 million per year company or $100 million business. I loved this book because it is a well organized and well written version of all that I and many others have learned from him through the years, and MORE!

Want to learn how to grow a company the right way ?
This book has so much valuable information in it you will need to read it 100X’s. Everyone always teaches how to manage a team by KPI’s, accountability, etc. but nobody ever talks about how important it is to be a people development/training company and how to empower your employees like this book does! Today is day 1 for us focusing on building a people development and training company and not just a company that sells windows and doors! This is one of the best books I’ve read and will implement the pillars to success into my company. Thank you Brian you for sharing your years of knowledge and wisdom!

Masterly crafted story
Absolutely loved the parable and how Brian then related back to it while explaining how the 5 pillars work. The message is clear and concise. Can’t wait to use these tools in the business. Thanks BG!
