Why Tech Won't Fix Your People Problem | Todd Krause
About this episode
Most business owners keep buying more technology, adding more processes, and layering on more oversight—yet growth stalls, turnover rises, and profits thin out. The real constraint isn't systems. It's leadership. CPA, entrepreneur, and TEDx speaker Todd Krause, who grew a business from $1.8 million to over $4 million during COVID, explains why investing in people and culture is the highest ROI decision you'll ever make. He shares why turnover, rework, and thin margins are the same problem in disguise, and what it actually takes to build a business that creates long term value while giving owners greater freedom. Khudania Ajay (KAJ) leads this conversation for founders who have tried everything—except the one thing that actually works.
