This episode of Kaizen Time explores a question many business owners wrestle with as they grow: is bigger actually better?
Clay Hamlin looks at what changes as a business scales and where growth can quietly introduce new pressure points. From rising overhead and complexity to systems, decision-making, and control, the conversation examines why growth that looks good on paper doesn’t always feel good in practice.
Rather than chasing size for its own sake, this discussion centers on the trade-offs behind growth and what needs to be in place before expanding too fast or too far.
