Michael Ungaro, CEO and business owner at San Pedro Fish Market, shares how he transformed the family business with the help of EOS Implementer® Nathen Fox.
The surprising journey of this CEO is a rollercoaster of resilience and innovation. From trying to establish his own business, to returning to run the family business as CEO, Michael’s determination and ability to pivot in the face of adversity is truly inspiring.
[11:14] “An entrepreneur can never get too comfortable because there’s always room for more ideas, and sometimes the best ones come from the people around you.”
Michael and Nathen discuss the challenges family businesses face, the pivotal moments of crisis, and Michael’s personal struggle and determination to bridge the gap between traditional family business practices and modern strategies.
[07:45] “I learned all these things in college and in my jobs, but I didn’t know how to apply them inside the family business because they were kind of stuck in doing things a certain way, and I didn’t want to start a fight about it.”
And just when you think the story couldn’t get any more unexpected, the family business not only survives, but thrives through a global pandemic, thanks to the transformative impact of EOS®.
This episode paints a vivid picture of the complexities and triumphs of running a multi-generational family business and what it takes to win against all odds.
