André Brisson was working as a structural engineer when he decided to start his own engineering company. Like a great many entrepreneurs, André knew he needed to be able to do things his way. In this episode, André shares with business coaches Dan Sullivan and Shannon Waller how he’s found freedom and business success on his entrepreneurial journey.

Here’s some of what you’ll learn in this episode:

  • How the company André worked for became a toxic environment for him.
  • What helped André realize that he doesn’t need anyone’s permission.
  • Why André’s opinions aren’t popular in bureaucracies or in politics.
  • André’s biggest challenges in the construction site field.
  • An incredible resource available for entrepreneurs with ADHD.

Show Notes:

If you want to do things differently, you have to find ways of negotiating with people who oppose you.

Entrepreneurial thinking can put other people off because it’s unconventional.

Non-entrepreneurs can only rationalize entrepreneurism.

Entrepreneurism is about freedom, and money is one of the tools you have to have to gain more freedom.

The two types of entrepreneurial freedom are freedom from and freedom to.

Personality and behavioral profiles provide a common language.

It’s useful for people who are different to recognize that the world wasn’t made with them in mind.

Just because something’s been done for a hundred years doesn’t mean it’s applicable right now.

Instead of competing with what someone else is doing, innovate something new.

People will show up if your message is about them.

It’s the check writer who determines whether you’re correct.

If you want to find people who are like you, you have to really know who you are.
