I have spent more than 40 years starting, buying, building and operating businesses—and I am still learning. Not because I need another certificate or more information stored on a laptop. I continue learning because the acquisition market changes, funding evolves and every business, seller and negotiation presents a different challenge. But there is also a trap. It is easy to convince ourselves that watching another video, completing another course or reading another book means we are making progress. It doesn’t. Knowledge only becomes valuable when it changes a decision or leads to action. My commitment inside The Acquisition Boardroom is to take what I learn and test it against real opportunities. That means approaching sellers, questioning the figures, exploring funding, negotiating terms and being prepared to walk away when the evidence does not support the deal. Some lessons will help move an acquisition forward. Others may prevent an expensive mistake. Both have value—but only when they are applied. So today’s Boardroom question is: What is one thing you already know you should be doing—but still haven’t acted on? Pull up a chair and be honest. Mine is continuing to follow up consistently when brokers or sellers go quiet.
