  • Your business is personal

    I love how Matt is a self-proclaimed personal development junkie and understands that our businesses are personal and a huge part of our lives, and how we benefit from considering our entire lives with each decision.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

138. Women Shop Owners: Leadership, Resilience & Growth | Part 2 w/ Laura Gay & Micki Woods
Q: Have you ever had that, Laura, of people taking advantage of our niceness, but then complaining when they see the other side?
Laura Gay says leaders can be loving and empathetic while setting clear expectations, and must become firm when team members repeatedly make poor choices or fail to correct mistakes.
138. Women Shop Owners: Leadership, Resilience & Growth | Part 2 w/ Laura Gay & Micki Woods
Q: Looking back on your own journey, what do you wish you had known when you were getting started in shop ownership life, and what would you want another woman considering shop ownership to know today?
Micki Woods says owners should stay hungry, avoid complacency, focus on their own plan, find trusted mentors, and ignore unhelpful criticism.
137. Women Shop Owners: Leadership, Resilience & Growth | Part 1 w/ Laura Gay & Micki Woods
Q: Would you say that women, because of kind of the way you're wired, tend to be a little more coachable than what guys, us Lunkhead guys are?
Laura Gay said she thinks men can sometimes feel pressure to appear strong and be the leader, while women may find it easier to accept coaching. Micki Woods described women owners she has worked with as more open to reassessing their processes, while noting that this is not true of everyone.
137. Women Shop Owners: Leadership, Resilience & Growth | Part 1 w/ Laura Gay & Micki Woods
Q: First, thinking back to when you became an owner, were there times when you felt like you had to prove yourself a little bit differently than your peers? What did that look like for you stepping into that ownership role?
Laura Gay said her prior industry experience and reputation made it easier to earn trust and recruit technicians. Micki Woods said she was new to collision repair and focused on learning, asking questions, and building connections rather than worrying about proving herself.
136. Women in Collision Repair: Leadership & Opportunities with Laura Kottschade & Kristle Bollans
Q: What is one thing you wish you had been told early in your collision repair career about money or long-term planning?
Plan early for the long term, including succession and ownership transitions; the shop may be the biggest asset, so establishing clear, forward-looking goals helps ensure the business and family are protected.
