Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm2 Maalis

Episode 308: Structure Without Micromanagement: The Leadership Shift Inside Growing Practices (ALT 2025 Replay)

This week on The Fierce Factor Podcast, we're bringing you another powerful replay from the ALT Experience 2025 stage, and this one is all about what leadership really looks like inside a scaling practice.

I sit down with three high-level operators and practice leaders, Amanda Siem, Melanie Crowley, and Liz Grad Murphy, for an honest, behind-the-scenes conversation about managing teams, building trust, and navigating the often complicated dynamic between founders and managers.

We unpack what it actually takes to turn vision into action, how to coach instead of constantly fixing, and why clear expectations eliminate chaos. You'll hear real talk about psychological safety, proactive communication, systems that create autonomy, and the tension between control and trust as your business grows.

If you've ever felt stuck in the middle, struggled to loosen your grip, or wondered how to build a team that can truly run with you, not just report to you, this conversation will hit home.

If you want to experience conversations like this live, there are only a handful of ALT Experience tickets remaining. Special bonus: When you register this week, you'll receive a 2-hour coaching intensive to prepare a customized growth plan prior to the event so you don't just attend, you arrive with strategy.
