The fitness industry was hit hard by the pandemic. For one company's leader, that mean tapping into his resilience and courage in order to pivot swiftly to keep the business going while maintaining his clients' safety.
Carl Ulmer is my good friend of mine. He is the Director of Operations for Club16 Trevor Linden Fitness and She's FIT! and was the key driver in their navigation of the pandemic-induced lockdown. This guy knows a thing or two about leadership and you're going to want to listen to what he has to say.
When were teammates on the basketball court back in high school, Carl always led by example and taught me the true meaning of hard work and toughness. Carl will be the first to tell you that he wasn't always the most athletic player on the floor, but he made darn sure to outwork every single last person...and it earned him a Div I scholarship... and so much more.
I recommend you listen to this episode.
I recommend you listen to Carl 💛🚀
