Corrina Carter discovered the opposite. After growing CMS Mortgage from 28 employees across 7 states to 158 employees in 27 states, she learned that sustainable growth doesn't come from working longer hoursβ€”it comes from building systems, developing leaders, and creating a business that can thrive without its founder. In this episode, Corrina @cmsmortgageshares the leadership principles, scaling strategies, and succession planning lessons that transformed her company into a founder-independent organization.
