What We Discuss In This Episode:
In this episode, we discuss Glenn Lundy’s transformative vision for 800% Elite Auto. Glenn shares that his dealership would be a leadership development academy first, a media company second, and a car seller last. This revolutionary approach shifts the focus from just moving vehicles off the lot to nurturing and empowering leaders, ensuring that the dealership’s success is built on a foundation of strong, capable individuals.

We also discuss why the podcast studio was the first priority in the dealership, while also discussing the key habits that help him recognize and seize opportunities, the importance of a morning routine, acting with urgency, and assessing opportunities quickly.
One of the most intriguing aspects of Glenn’s method is his no-schedule policy. He explains how this policy fosters a culture of responsibility and high performance. By treating team members as adults, this approach challenges traditional workplace structures, emphasizing trust and empowerment over micromanagement.
Thanks, Glenn Lundy!
