The Best Advice I Ever Received? Solve the Problem Before It Happens. Who likes nasty surprises?
Early in my career, a mentor told me something that has shaped every decision I’ve made since:
“The best operators don’t react to problems. They see them before they happen.”
In industry, I’ve seen businesses thrive—and I’ve seen them struggle. The difference?
✅ Proactive leadership. Spotting inefficiencies before they eat into margins.
✅ Resilient strategy. Building supply chains that can handle disruption.
✅ Sustainable growth. Scaling in a way that doesn’t just work for today, but for the next decade.
At Stuart Lee & Associates, we don’t just help businesses fix problems—we help them avoid them altogether. Because in this industry, waiting until something breaks is already too late.
