What happens when you gather the most common, most challenging questions from our Director of Operations community and answer them live, without a script? Pure gold. In this Ops Edition of The Ops Authority Podcast, I'm joined once again by Lynette Robinson to tackle three real-world scenarios that every operator faces: how to clearly communicate what you do, how to build local connections that convert, and whether to niche down or stay broad as a new business owner. If you've struggled with messaging, meetups & momentum, this episode will give you the clarity and confidence to move forward strategically.

Have you been considering the agency model, and wondering if this model would be the best path for your Director of Operations (DOO) business?  Are you curious about what goes on behind the scenes in an agency, and what the difference is between agency ownership, and building a team?

I am joined today by my dear friend and peer, Tasha Booth, and we are talking about the agency model option .

Tasha has been able to master this, and in fact, has done this so well that others come and ask her how to do this with excellence.

Do you have questions about fractional work, and how to structure your business around it?

Are you longing to move into the next iteration of your business journey?

For the last year I have been sharing how to build better businesses. Everyone here is a service provider, whether you are inside someone else's business as a dedicated employee, or building your own business.

We have been looking at growth opportunities, and in Episode 189, we talked about the "next best self" mentality. Today we are going to take that a step further and talk about gaining "career clarity."

Is it true that you can only be a creative or an operator, but not both? Are these two things mutually exclusive, and is it possible to be successful as an operator if you consider yourself a creative?

Today, Regina Vigil joins us for a conversation. Regina came through the Director of Operations (DOO) certification as an employee, and is proof that you can be a creative and also excel at operations.

We are getting ready to launch the 19th cohort of the DOO certification program! If you are interested in joining you can learn more about the certification program and apply.
