Quote:

“There was this amazing gravitational pull because people wanted to be a part of this vibrancy that was created within our company.” – John Stix

Story:

In Part 1 of the conversation with John, he and Dominick talked about his journey from starting a telecommunications company as a bootstrapping entrepreneur who faced challenges including two devastating setbacks. Through these obstacles and losing passion for the company he started, he realized the incredible importance of company culture and not losing sight of what is truly important.

This Part 2 of the conversation is a video recording of John’s closing keynote speech at #IMPACT15 in Las Vegas this past September. Earning the first ever standing ovation at an IMPACT presentation, people raved about this talk and it is well worth a watch and listen.
