BUILD YOUR SECOND-IN-COMMANDÂ WORKSHOP
Â
Implement the 3 systems that define, structure, and support a true second-in-command so your business can operate without relying on you for everything.
For Business Owners + Operators + Managers
LIVE Thursday. April 30 @ 1pm EST
You’ve promoted, demoted, fired, and rehired the person meant to handle all the moving pieces in your business.
But if you’re still the one solving everything… you don’t have a second-in-command.
Inside this workshop, you’ll build the right second-in-command for your elevator business using 3 systems that stabilize leadership compatibility, accountability, and communication.
What Clients Are Saying About Our Workshops:

Because Your Business Will Go From:
-
Wearing too many hats because you don’t fully trust anyone to run with it the way you would
-
Second-guessing your leadership team and unsure who can confidently take ownership at a higher level
-
Avoiding or inconsistent accountability because roles, expectations, and ownership aren’t clearly defined
-
Still being the one everyone comes to for answers, decisions, and problem-solving
To...
-
Having a second-in-command who takes ownership and executes without you needing to step in
-
Knowing exactly who is responsible for what and trusting them to lead it
-
Leading consistent, productive check-ins that create accountability without unnecessary friction
-
Running a business where decisions, communication, and execution don’t rely on you

When You Join The
Build Your Second-In-Command Workshop
You will:
-
Identify the right person for the role before you hand it over
Use a clear evaluation framework to determine if your current (or future) second-in-command is truly equipped to lead or if you’re forcing the wrong fit. -
Define what they own and how it’s measured
Establish clear role responsibilities and 3–5 key metrics so your second-in-command is accountable for execution and not just involvement.
-
Create true accountability without micromanaging
Implement a simple scorecard system that tracks performance weekly — so you’re no longer chasing updates or wondering what’s getting done. -
Run a weekly operating rhythm that keeps you aligned
Structure a consistent CEO + second-in-command meeting that drives decisions, solves challenges, and keeps the business moving forward.

Meet Your Host
Sean Madden is a former elevator business owner with over 35 years of industry experience.
After decades of building, leading, and restructuring his own team, he learned that growth stalls when there’s no clear operator in place to drive execution.
He’s seen firsthand what happens when the wrong person is in that role and what’s possible when the right person is supported with the structure, accountability, and communication systems needed to lead.
Over the past 15 years, Sean has helped dozens of elevator companies step out of the day-to-day, build strong second-in-command leadership, and scale their operations — contributing to over $100 million in revenue using the same systems he built at Madden Elevator to grow and eventually sell his business for more than 2X its market value.
JOIN THE WORKSHOPHe created Elevator Strategic Hub to provide the support he wished he had as an owner with practical systems, industry-specific tools, and a clear path forward for sustainable companies.
When Sean isn’t working with elevator business owners…
He’s probably floating on a pontoon in the gulf, drinking his fourth cup of coffee, and convincing himself this isn’t turning into a full-time retirement gig.
His wife Susie is still not convinced that “helping elevator owners build better businesses” isn’t just a hobby.
Your Goals For This Workshop:
Decisions Get Made Without You
Your team has a clear point of leadership so the questions, problems, and next steps don’t all route back to you.
Execution Happens
Priorities move forward, deadlines are met, and things don’t stall waiting on your involvement
Problems Get Solved Earlier
Issues are identified, addressed, and handled before they turn into bigger disruptions.
You Finally Have Space to Lead
Instead of managing the day-to-day, you can focus on growth, relationships, and the bigger picture of the business.
This Is For You If:
✓ You’re tired of hiring, training, and losing employees in the same exhausting cycle every year
✓ You want simple, reliable systems that keep people accountable without micromanaging them
✓ You need practical tools you can implement tomorrow in your elevator business
✓ You want employees who take initiative, show up prepared, and follow through consistently
✓ You’re ready to grow the people you already have instead of constantly recruiting replacements
✓ You want fewer surprises, fewer fire drills, and a team that performs without constant intervention
Build the systems your employees need — and the stability your business deserves.
