What does it take to leave a nearly 30-year corporate career and build a successful business around leadership, relationships, and real-world impact?
In this episode of Amazing Authorities, Mitch Carson sits down with Dr. Kevin Gazzara, who spent nearly three decades at Intel and helped train more than 40,000 managers before transitioning into entrepreneurship and leadership development.
Dr. Gazzara shares the principles that helped shape his entrepreneurial journey, including his Eight Ps framework: Planning, Provisions, Product, Presence, People, Publication, Partner, and Persistence. He explains why entrepreneurs need more than a great idea, from having financial runway and a differentiated product to building a strong network and staying persistent when things get difficult.
The conversation also explores how a value-first LinkedIn strategy generated interest from 77 plant managers in just one week, demonstrating how helping people and creating genuine conversations can open doors without aggressive selling.
Dr. Gazzara also reveals why publishing a hardcover book can build credibility, how storytelling makes leadership lessons easier to remember, and why his servant-leadership philosophy focuses on giving value first and allowing business relationships to develop naturally.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
• The Eight Ps framework Dr. Gazzara uses to help entrepreneurs build a stronger foundation for long-term success.
