This podcast is designed around bringing the best thought leadership around business to small business owners, and we want to bring value by covering a wide and diverse range of topics. Ryan Tansom is here to share his Intentional Growth™principles to help us understand the true value of our businesses. Join us to learn more!
Ryan Tansom started his entrepreneurial career at his family business as the executive VP and was responsible for the strategic, operational, and financial strategy of the $21M company. By bringing intentional focus to the right strategies, he helped turn the company around and enabled it to be sold for eight figures to a local competitor in 2014. Ryan’s experience led him to the founding of Arkona with his business partner, Pat, to create the Intentional Growth™ framework. This system helps owners grow their companies with an end in mind by helping them view–and run–their companies through educational training, fractional CFO services, and strategic planning. He also hosts the popular Intentional Growth™podcast that has 310+ episodes and over 420,000 downloads and features guests like Gino Wickman, John Warrillow, Mike Michalowicz, and editors of popular publications like HBR and Inc. Magazine. With many passionate keynote speaking engagements, thousands of meetings, and hundreds of podcast interviews, Ryan has his finger on the pulse of the market like few others
