#177 - Before the Busy Season: Discipline, Accountability & Leadership for Lawn Care Operators | Chris Ciccone
Description
Chris Ciccone joins the Turf Nerds podcast to encourage lawn care and landscaping operators before the busy season begins.
With a background in the United States Marines and a career built around service and leadership, Chris shares powerful lessons on discipline, accountability, habits, and what it means to “do the right things for the right reasons.”
We connect those principles directly to the lawn care industry, covering how to stay steady during long days, avoid burnout, lead your crew well, and build a business that actually serves your customers.
Chris also shares the mission behind the Not So Special (forces) Podcast and the Miles Gregarius Foundation, focused on supporting veterans and preserving their stories.
If you’re gearing up for the mowing season, this is the mindset you need.
