114: Clockworking in a crisis with Leslie Liondas

RUN LIKE CLOCKWORK: SMALL BUSINESS OPERATIONS

It would be wonderful if clockworking your life + business just took a cookie-cutter plan. However, part of life inevitably includes unexpected crises. Clockwork prepares you to navigate unexpected crises with grace and ease.

Our guest on the Run Like Clockwork Podcast is Clockie winner, Leslie Liondas, CEO of Liondas CPA. In February, Texas was hit with a series of major snow storms… while Leslie was on vacation… during payroll time. If Leslie had not been clockworking her business, it could have been an absolute disaster! Instead, her team navigated this unexpected crisis in her absence with great success!

Topics Leslie + Emily cover on this episode:

• What the impact of the crisis would have been without clockwork in place
• Designing a business that’s prepared for when life happens
• Implementing a new project management system
• How capturing systems gives peace of mind knowing crises are inevitable
• How processes can make sure you’re not transferring bottlenecks to other team members
