512 :: How This President Prevents Burnout by Building Simple Leadership Rhythms: Josh Hendrickson of Wilson Lumber

Is your team giving the market a different story depending on who they talk to—business development, operations, or leadership?

In a soft market, confusion is expensive. If your message, priorities, and capacity don’t match across departments, you don’t just lose efficiency—you lose trust, margins, and momentum. 

In this episode, Josh Hendrickson, President of Wilson Lumber, breaks down how strong leaders create clarity under pressure, keep sales and operations speaking the same language, and stay consistent quarter to quarter without burning out.

In this episode you will:

• Learn how to create one clear message across sales and operations so execution matches what’s being sold
• Discover quarterly rhythms that keep your leadership team aligned (and prevent drift)
• Understand how to communicate with urgency and steadiness so stress doesn’t spread through the organization

Press play to learn how to lead with clarity in a soft market—so your team moves as one.
