Key Takeaways:
1️⃣ Good intentions are not a growth strategy
You can scale your team, build your brand, and raise capital but if you are not creating real impact you are just making noise

2️⃣ Real disruption starts with you
Mark challenges founders to rethink outdated systems and stop treating symptoms when they should be solving problems

3️⃣ If you are not measuring outcomes you are just guessing
Vanity metrics look good in boardrooms but they do not build meaningful change or sustainable businesses
