Half Monk, Half Hitman: Enforcing the Standard at Scale with Jon Hunter

Описание: What actually causes standards to slip as your organization scales, even when everyone “knows” what the standard is?

In this episode, Jon Hunter breaks down why performance erosion is rarely a tactics problem and almost always a leadership integrity problem, rooted in consistency, self-esteem, and systems.

Jon shares the origin of his “half monk, half hitman” philosophy and how integrating calm discipline with ruthless execution creates cultures that perform under pressure.

You’ll also hear Jon’s practical frameworks for customer obsession you can measure, anti-sales selling through trust-based discovery, and turning customers into true advocates.
