Your value prop defines the path. Episode 4 is where you turn that path into measurable, realistic goals. In this episode of Your Future Biz, Mandy and Lindsay dig into why most goals collapse by Q1 and how to build goals that survive reality, breaking down the difference between ambition and operational clarity.
You'll learn how to set goals based on math, capacity, and systems instead of wishful thinking. We explain how to create activity goals that drive momentum and outcome goals that keep you grounded in what moves the business forward.
