Trust versus faith — it's a distinction that Ray Hatch, Chief Executive Officer, President, and Director of Quest Resource Holding Corporation, explores with a refreshing candor in this conversation with Deborah Fell. Drawing from his unique journey from food distribution to waste management and lessons learned as a basketball coach's son, Ray shares how he transformed a struggling public company by cutting revenue in half while growing profits - a move that required more than just trust from his team and board; it demanded faith.
Ray and Deborah tackle the formidable challenge of building a team that can scale a company from $300 million to potentially billions. It’s not just about hiring smart people - it's about finding those who can see "the art of the possible" and aren't afraid to think beyond current limitations.
As Ray puts it, with a characteristic blend of humility and conviction, "I have limitations. I don't want those limitations to be my company's limitations." It's this kind of straight-shooting wisdom, wrapped in authentic leadership experience, that makes this episode a compelling exploration of what it takes to build and lead high-performing teams in today's complex business environment.
