Matt Fouts, Director at Tanganyika Wildlife Park, takes us on the journey of how he transformed a family-owned wildlife park into a world-class interactive zoo.

With a rich family history rooted in wildlife preservation, Matt’s dedication shines through as he shares his commitment to creating an exceptional experience for visitors, animals, and his dedicated team.

[09:23] “I realized early on that the success of the park was going to hinge on my ability as a leader. We would only get better if I could grow as a leader instead of being a Visionary and Integrator at the same time.”

Matt reflects on his leadership journey, sharing his goal to create unforgettable memories for visitors, fostering stronger connections to wildlife, and nurturing a passion for conservation. He also discusses the early challenges he and his team have faced throughout the years, the significance of celebrating wins, and the importance of a cohesive team in achieving their mission.

Embracing an entrepreneurial mindset, Matt worked alongside EOS Implementer® Aaron West to establish the processes they needed to scale and thrive.

[27:58] “We always knew we wanted to be something wildly different, and EOS® came in and helped us understand who we were and who we wanted to be.”

Whether you’re passionate about making an impact or seeking entrepreneurial wisdom, this episode offers valuable insights and practical takeaways for driving growth and purpose. Matt’s story is a testament to the power of leadership, team cohesion, and a clear vision in transforming a dream into reality.
