Blue Collar CEO Podcast’s Post

How do you drive Business Success? As a leader, your personality trait can affect how people work, communicate, resolve conflict, and react to different situations. In addition, we should understand the personalities of our teams and its members, to be able to develop their strengths, while managing their weaknesses… Summer is a great time for reflection, so this weekend it’s about Traits…and I found this amazing but simple graphic. Ask yourself this question. Do you recognise any of these in YOUR leadership?

Building the Business of You We often focus on building our businesses—improving processes, driving growth, and increasing profitability. But here’s a question: How often do you focus on building you? The truth is, the greatest asset in your business isn’t your product or service; it’s you. The clarity you bring, the decisions you make, the energy you give—these are the real drivers of success. When leaders focus on building the business of themselves, they amplify their leverage to excel in business, leadership, and life. It’s about strengthening your inner game—clarity, belief systems, value awareness—and aligning your actions with who you truly are. By investing in yourself, you build the capacity to lead more effectively, make better decisions, and unlock breakthroughs that can transform not only your business but your entire life. So, how are you building the business of you? #Leadership #BusinessGrowth #SelfDevelopment #StrategicLeadership #PersonalGrowth

Trinity’s founder, Robert Griggs, published his debut book Foundational Leadership. Robert shares the story of his encounter with Jack Stack, author of The Great Game of Business. This first interaction changed Robert’s life and formed the basis for an entirely different way to view leadership – one where leaders led with an open book and were willing to share the ins and outs of how a company was run. Through the utilization of concepts such as profit sharing, benchmarks, scoreboards, and continuous improvement, Robert created a prosperous company that continues to grow.

I believe that when leaders focus on “the business of you”, they amplify their leverage and excel across all dimensions of life. When you shift your focus inward - toward building your mindset, clarity, and self-awareness - you unlock your greatest potential. It’s not just about running a successful business; it’s about running “you” successfully. The more you amplify your inner game, the greater impact you’ll have on everything you touch, from your team to your bottom line. Are you ready to elevate your leadership and life? Let’s start building “the business of you”. #LeadershipDevelopment #Personal Growth #SelfLeadership #AmplifyYou #BusinessMindset #StrategicClarity
