Summary of Zane Tarence’s leadership interview

Zane Tarence is a partner at Founders Advisors, an investment bank in Dallas, Nashville and Birmingham that helps owners — especially Vistage members — increase their enterprise value. Involved with Vistage for about 11 years and having spoken to Ed Robinson’s groups several times, he says Ed deeply shares their view of adding value to owners and has made his own partners better through what he calls “invited accountability.” His leadership tips: exceptional people create exceptional results, so know the difference between your A and C players; and encourage every owner to get clear on what they truly want from their business, then relentlessly work to become more valuable for all their stakeholders.
