CELEBRATION, FL / ACCESSWIRE / January 13, 2023 / Carl Guidice is an experienced business owner and CEO. After graduating with an Economics degree from the University of Virginia, he accepted a position as a financial analyst before transitioning to entrepreneurship. Given his knowledge and experience, Carl partnered with various private equity companies and established a Human Resources Management business. Carl eventually sold to a Fortune 500 company for ten times the amount of his original investment. In a recent online interview, he takes the time to highlight his path to success and how he got to where he is today. When asked what drives him to succeed, he states,
"I think it's not quite a drive, but more of a love. Like the adage says, 'if you love what you do then you never work a day in your life'. I genuinely loved what I did, and I think that makes all the difference. One of the ways I've structured my companies in the past is trying to get equity to as many people as possible. I want to have owners, not employees, because owners think differently when they go into work. An employee just wants to get through the day and go home, but an owner won't go until everything has been done."
As someone who takes great pride in his professional career, Carl claims that he goes into every business initiative with an owner's mindset. He also stresses the importance of collaboration and teamwork. Having bought and sold various companies, he states that every employee should feel valued. Like most business professionals, Carl's view of success has changed throughout his career. When asked: "How has your definition of success changed over the years?"
"Like everyone else, I wanted the brass ring. I thought ultimately, having a liquidity event, selling my company, and getting a big pay day was what it was all about. When I sold my first company and the deal closed, I called my wife and asked if she felt different and she said no. I didn't feel any different either. It was a big letdown to have the thing I was chasing feel wrong. I had to reflect on it a little bit and I realized that the success was the journey, the camaraderie with my employees, the late nights on my knees praying that my company would survive the recession. What I'm doing now is something I'm doing because I enjoy it."
According to Carl Guidice, success goes beyond the bank, and an organization is built on leadership and a positive company culture. Those interested in reading the full interview can do so here.
