A Clear Vision: Guiding Your Team with Core Values - Dan Claps, Christian Dadulak

In this episode of the "I Fired My Boss" podcast, your host, Dan Claps, delves into the vital topic of building a team grounded in core values. As the CEO of Voda Cleaning and Restoration, Dan shares his journey of skepticism towards core values in the business world and how he transitioned to recognizing their immense significance. Over the years, he has discovered that when he aligns his team, franchise partners, and business decisions with core values, he witnesses an increase in success and cohesion within his organization. Dan emphasizes that core values are not mere corporate jargon but a crucial compass for a team. He draws parallels between successful relationships and an organization, highlighting that both are built upon shared values.

Dan shares some of the core values integral to his business model at Voda, such as grit, being a student of the game, transparency, being caringly candid, going the extra mile, and adaptability. He also advocates hiring individuals who not only fit your core values but also have a business owner's mindset. As a CEO, Dan advises the importance of casting a clear and concise vision, reiterating it consistently through various mediums, securing buy-in from team members, providing necessary resources, holding people accountable, and acting as a cheerleader to boost morale. He believes that a strong team should work for the company's vision rather than for individual success, fostering a collective drive to achieve a greater goal. For those looking to own a business and operate it semi-absentee, Dan's insights are invaluable for building a successful and motivated team centered around core values.
