EP 148 | How I Lead A $125M Team

Welcome back to Building Billions! In today's episode, I share the key framework I use to lead my $125 million team of over 300 employees. I'm Natalie Dawson, co-founder of Cardone Ventures. Over the past five years, we've grown from zero to $125 million in revenue by finding remarkable talent and fostering a winning culture. The foundation of my strategy is John Maxwell's "Law of the Lid," which says a leader's capability limits their organization's potential. I've expanded this concept into three components: the Belief Lid, Operational Effectiveness Lid, and Leadership Lid. Belief Lid: How much do you believe in your mission and abilities? This sets the stage for what's possible. Operational Effectiveness Lid: How effective are you at achieving your goals? Leadership Lid: How well can you duplicate your success in others? High belief leads to high operational effectiveness, enabling effective leadership. By inspiring my team to believe in their potential, achieve high performance, and lead others, we create a cycle of growth and success.
