Brian Slipka is the owner of the True North Family of Companies, which includes over 20 businesses with nearly $250 million in annual revenue. After an early career in sales and leadership at major corporations, he left the public/corporate world to focus on his growing portfolio of small businesses. He credits his faith, commitment to servant leadership, and ability to build trusting relationships as the keys to his entrepreneurial success.
Today, Brian Slipka shares a deeply personal story about a conversation with his father on his deathbed, which served as a wake-up call for him to reassess his life's pursuits. Despite having achieved significant professional success, Brian realized he was internally struggling and unfulfilled.
Brian also delve into the lessons he learned from his father, a retired US Army colonel and small business owner who exemplified servant leadership and selflessness. He recounts how his father's actions, rather than words, taught him the importance of respect, relationship-building, and community service. These values have profoundly influenced Brian's approach to life and business, emphasizing the significance of living a life dedicated to the service of others.
