Listen "75: Building Community with your Business with John Stewart"
Episode Synopsis
Why does your company exist? What is its "why"? In this episode of Magic in the Room, Chris, Luke, and guest John Stewart discuss John's company Encompass. The people and leadership of Encompass work hard to serve their clients with the purpose of investing in the communities where they work and live. Because the company exists to support communities, measuring success includes profit, but everyone is intentional to use that profit for the good of the community. About John Stewart, President, Encompass Develop, Design & Construct, LLC John has a lot of titles – company owner, registered architect, licensed contractor, recognized authority in the gaming and hospitality industry. But the title he prefers is "partner." That's how he built a $100+ million company that is the choice of major companies such as Yum! Brands, Ford Motor Company, Churchill Downs, Pinnacle, and Brown-Forman. John's nearly three decades of work experience runs the gamut from gaming and hospitality to religion and retail. He has built churches, casinos and corporate headquarters, but his greatest skill is building teams of dedicated, talented professionals. He's a servant leader who devotes time to his family, community, and church, volunteering as a teacher for 3rd and 4th graders, a marriage mentor and an educator on Business and Work as a tool for missions.
