🎉 Lisa Guidry, CEO Reflects – 26 Years in Business! 🎉 What I’ve learned: 1. Never panic. Ever. 2. If you are not genuine, it will be very apparent 3. At times, your people will outgrow you and you may outgrow them. That’s ok. Keep moving. 4. Be fluid – what got you here won’t keep you moving forward. Adapt or fall behind. 5. If someone wants something for nothing or want it cheap, they don’t value you. Know your worth. 6. There’s no work-life balance. Just appreciation for what provides for your family. Work smarter. 7. One door closes, another opens – it’s true. 8. Your family is the most important thing on earth – be there for them. 9. Drama? Zero place for it in business – or life. 10. Never, ever change your values for someone who has none. 11. Nourish yourself. Take the time you need when you need it. 12. Trust yourself – don’t let someone else’s voice drown out your gut. 13. Fight relentlessly for your goals. There will be obstacles, but the goal is always the goal—go to the mat fighting and don’t stop until you’ve achieved it. 14. We’re here to serve. Be a mentor. Lift others up. 15. Always say thank you. 16. Work from home sucks. Hybrid is cool – go see your people, shake hands, tell stories. 17. Take care of yourself – eat healthy, exercise. Your team and family need you at your best. 18. People are mostly good, even if they’re in a weird place. Forgive and move on. 19. As a woman, lift each other up. Never tear each other down. 20. Yes, you can have it all – if you want it all. 21. Take your team on crazy, fun adventures – do things they’ve never done before. 22. A college degree doesn’t make you smart. 23. Everything has its season. Keep growing. 24. Every person throughout my career had a purpose. I still appreciate them. 25. Money isn’t the only reason to work. 26. I never thought I’d still be in business 26 years later – but here we are. Feeling good! #AnniversaryReflections #26YearsStrong #BusinessLessons #KeepGrowing #Gratitude

Stop Waiting for 'Someday If you're waiting for everything to be perfect before you take the leap, you’ll be waiting forever. There will never be a time when all the stars align, the traffic lights turn green, and the path ahead is free of obstacles. The universe isn’t against you, but it’s not setting the stage for you either. We often get trapped in analysis paralysis, believing that conditions will improve, or that ‘someday’ will arrive when everything is just right. But the truth is, ‘someday’ is a mirage that keeps our dreams just out of reach. If it matters to you, stop waiting for ideal conditions. Take that first step, embrace the uncertainty, and adjust as you go. Success doesn’t come from waiting; it comes from action. So, whatever it is that you’ve been putting off, start today. The perfect time is now. #MotivationalMonday #TakeAction #Leadership #GrowthMindset #BusinessStrategy #ExecutiveSearch #PersonalDevelopment

Is Your Leadership Team Truly Pushing the Boundaries? Sometimes we get too comfortable and settle for less, overlooking what’s truly vital for future success. Are you holding your executive team to the highest standards, or have you surrounded yourself with those who simply go with the flow? Great leadership requires accountability, challenge, and growth. If you’ve chosen leaders who don’t push back or bring bold ideas to the table, it might be time to re-evaluate. Don’t let complacency stall your organization’s progress. #NeverSettle #ETIProfessionalSearch #Leaders #IMPACT

The Price of Inaction is Too High Indecision can be the most significant risk of all. While mistakes can be corrected and lessons learned, inaction paralyzes growth and potential. Leaders who are willing to make bold choices and take calculated risks inspire progress and innovation. Don’t let fear hold you back—embrace action, even if it’s imperfect. It’s the first step toward growth, success, and a future full of possibilities. #MotivationalMonday #BusinessStrategy #Hiring #ExecutiveSearch #Leadership #Culture #CompetitiveAdvantage

Fueling Industrial Success: The Power of a Strong C-Suite A well-rounded C-suite isn't just an asset in the industrial sector - it's a game-changer.

Are You Surrounding Yourself with the Right People? Are you playing it safe by surrounding yourself with mediocre players to stand out as the smartest? Or do you hold back out of fear that you won’t measure up, grappling with imposter syndrome? Even the most successful people struggle with choosing the right company, and it can be intimidating.
