Chip Higgins: Why Friction is Your Business's Best Friend
Episode 382
Wednesday, 7 October, 2026
Have you ever thought about your business the way a physicist thinks about motion? Our guest, Chip Higgins, banking veteran and founder of Bizzics, has spent over 35 years helping entrepreneurs find the momentum that turns small businesses into massive ones. In this Start With a Win episode, you'll discover why bigness and greatness aren't the same thing, how to pinpoint the mass at the core of your company, and why friction - done right - is your business's best friend. Learn how narrowing your focus can widen your growth, and why the smartest leadership shift you can make is putting the power in your team's hands. If you're ready to rethink what drives your business forward, this episode will change how you see momentum for good.Chip’s Bio:I’ve spent over 35 years helping small business owners build momentum, strengthen leadership, and create lasting impact. As the founder of Bizzics and author of The Bizzics Way: Powering Your Small Business to Maximum Momentum, I equip entrepreneurs with practical strategies to thrive in competitive markets.During my decades in banking and executive leadership, I realized that small businesses often lack access to the same strategic insights and resources available to larger companies. That inspired me to develop The Bizzics Way, a framework that blends the laws of physics with proven business practices to help leaders generate energy, velocity, and sustainable momentum.I’m passionate about teaching entrepreneurs how to build high-performing, purpose-driven organizations — businesses that don’t need to be large to be massive. As a founding member of the John C. Maxwell Team, I enjoy speaking, coaching, and sharing actionable strategies that deliver real-world results with clarity and inspiration.00:00 Intro05:13 How to make sense of it all when there is so much out there! 06:38 This is the holy grail of business… 09:27 If you haven’t figured out this then you will have a rough go at it!12:40 Which should be considered?16:03 It’s mutual understanding… 18:17 What is the biggest source that slows businesses?21:25 Leadership mindset shift that will change your company’s trajectory.24:21 It’s a John Maxwell finish… ===========================Subscribe and Listen to the Start With a Win Podcast HERE:📱 ===========================YT ➡︎ https://www.youtube.com/@AdamContosCEOApple ➡︎ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/start-with-a-win/id1438598347Spotify ➡︎ https://open.spotify.com/show/4w1qmb90KZOKoisbwj6cqT===========================Connect with Adam:===========================Website ➡︎ https://adamcontos.com/Facebook ➡︎ https://facebook.com/AdamContosCEOTwitter ➡︎ https://twitter.com/AdamContosCEOInstagram ➡︎ https://instagram.com/adamcontosceo/#adamcontos #startwithawin #leadershipfactory
