How to Elevate Your Leadership Playbook, with Brett Gilliland

Episode 146

I am super excited about the conversation with my special guest joining this episode of Sell with Authority, Brett Gilliland.

Co-Founder and CEO of Elite Entrepreneurs, Brett and his team teach “The Proven Leadership System” to help 7-figure businesses scale to $10 million and beyond.

Before founding Elite Entrepreneurs, Brett spent 10 years helping Keap grow from a 7-figure software company to over $100 million in annual revenue. He’s an expert in leadership, strategy, and organizational development — and he’s helped hundreds of agency owners push past obstacles to hit new levels of success. Brett brings a treasure trove of expertise from his vast experience in leadership, planning, and operational discipline.

Here’s the reality — change is inevitable in business, and the key to thriving lies in being ready and adaptable.

All your work — all your long nights — all your weekends — all the blood, sweat, and tears you and your team are investing toward the goal of growing your shop — may be for naught if you don’t have a leadership plan in place for how you will deal with the challenges that growth presents along the way.

Brett shares how aligning everyone with your core purpose and values provides solid stability — giving your team the resilience and mindset to pivot and grow — no matter what change comes your way.

If you take and apply the insights and wisdom that Brett shares during this episode — you’ll be in the right position to raise the bar of excellence — and sell more of what you do.
