Summary
Why can’t you do your calling in your current business?
Today’s guest, Tana Greene, was asked this question by her coach when considering leaving her business due to a lack of fulfillment. What Tana learned was that when you understand who you are and what your values are, your business will align accordingly. In order to make sure that every new employee knows their strengths, which in turn helps the company, Tana requires every employee take the Strength Finder test upon hire.
Tana Greene is the CEO of The Greene Group, operating since 1988. In 2009 Tana and her husband opened Road Dog Drivers, to provide a matching system of professional truck drivers with motor carriers. This system is designed to keep assets moving. They wanted to match professional truck drivers that were able to drive and had unused hours of service to companies using an easy-to-use online platform.
