Welcome to Episode 94 of Building My Legacy.

In this podcast we talk with Don Markland, the CEO and owner of Accountability Now,TM an executive coaching and business strategy company. Don founded his company based on his program, the Four Cs of Accountability. He explores each of these with us and explains how driving accountability — with the right business strategy — will help businesses scale faster, sell more and be more successful.

Don also tells us how his roots — as a sales person and chief revenue officer — enable him to partner with businesses to help them grow. His message is particularly helpful for small businesses as well as those of you who want to build your legacy.

So if you want to know:

  • How the fear of failure can prevent you from taking action
  • Why you shouldn’t celebrate success
  • The importance of crushing mediocrity
  • How a coach can help you develop confidence
  • The fastest way to get ahead (by “cheating off” your coach’s mistakes)
