INTERVIEW ON THE PRICE OF BUSINESS SHOW, MEDIA PARTNER OF THIS SITE.

Recently Kevin Price, Host of the nationally syndicated Price of Business Show, interviewed Bill Flynn.

On a recent Price of Business show, Host Kevin Price interviewed Bill Flynn, founder of Catalyst Growth Advisors and author of the forthcoming book The Hero Trap (Berrett-Koehler, October 2026), with a foreword by Marshall Goldsmith. Bill is an executive coach, speaker, and Harvard Business Review contributor with roughly thirty years inside scaling companies, including ten startups, two IPOs, and seven acquisitions. He has coached hundreds of CEOs and senior leaders and is a member of Marshall Goldsmith’s MG100 community. His work centers on three levers that determine whether a company scales: building the right teams, accelerating strategic execution, and driving cash for fuel and flexibility.

They discussed why the same instincts that made someone a great leader at one stage often make them the biggest bottleneck at the next, the identity shift from hero to architect that separates leaders who scale from those who stall, what the research on team performance and decision-making actually shows, and a few simple practices a leader can start this week to build an organization that runs well without depending on them.
