In this episode, we explore the VITAL framework, a powerful tool developed by Amanda C. Watts for building a thriving business. The VITAL acronym stands for Value, Impact, Trust, Agility, and Lucrative. In this episode, we'll delve into each of these components and explore how you can apply them to your business, life and beyond.

Key Takeaways:

• The Pareto Principle: Understand how the 80/20 rule impacts your business and focus on the vital few areas that drive significant results.
• The VITAL Framework: Learn how to implement the five pillars of VITAL - Value, Impact, Trust, Agility, and Lucrative - to create a thriving business.
