  In this episode of The Green Grind, LeRoy and Kory Ballard have a raw, unfiltered conversation about one of the toughest challenges business owners face: learning when to get out of the way.

They also talk about the importance of SOPs, clearly defined roles and responsibilities, empowering employees with real authority, and giving your team a measurable scorecard for success.

  Sep 1, 202653 minS1

  In this episode of The Green Grind, Kory and Leroy sit down for a no-guest conversation about what it really takes to grow a successful landscaping business—and why staying comfortable can be one of the biggest obstacles to growth. The guys break down a recent acquisition, what they learned from bringing new team members into the company, and why having strong systems in place can make taking on additional business much easier. They also dive into hiring, leadership, delegation, and the importance of planning 3–5 years ahead instead of constantly reacting to what's happening today.
