Insights from the Search Phase
In this episode of The Next Step, I speak with Greg Green. Greg is the director of Single Trail Capital.
We focus a lot of the conversation around his experience in the search phase and shed some light on what it's actually like to be in the trenches of conducting a search, what things need to be considered, and what might not turn out the way you want?
Throughout this episode, Greg shares some great insights into what he has learned through his journey in search and where it has taken him.
Show notes:
