<![CDATA[Growth Without Guesswork]]>Growth Without Guesswork is a podcast about what it really takes to build, operate and grow a successful company.

Hosted by entrepreneur and strategic growth advisor Ashley Tate, each episode goes behind the scenes with founders, CEOs, executives and operators to uncover the decisions, systems, challenges and lessons that have shaped their businesses.

We talk about the things that don’t always make it into the highlight reel: what actually drove growth, what didn’t work, how leaders navigate change, where businesses lose time and efficiency, how teams and processes evolve as companies scale, and how technology and AI are changing the way work gets done.

From construction and manufacturing to technology, professional services and emerging industries, Growth Without Guesswork brings together leaders with one thing in common: they’re responsible for figuring out what comes next.

There are no generic success stories and no one-size-fits-all playbooks. Just candid conversations about the decisions behind growth—and the lessons other business leaders can take from them.

Because sustainable growth shouldn’t be based on guesswork.

In this episode of Growth Without Guesswork, host Ashley Tate sits down with Mike Trulove of SULLIVAN, a commercial construction leader, innovator, and published author, for a conversation about resilience, leadership, faith, and the changing construction industry.

Mike shares his perspective on building strong relationships, embracing new technology, and finding opportunities to improve how businesses operate.
