Lee Benson

With more than 25 years of experience as a CEO, I understand the challenging tensions that exist between putting people first while remaining focused on performance. I owned and led Able Aerospace – a company we grew from 3 to 500 employees with 15 consecutive years of 20 percent compounded average annual growth. 

After I sold Able Aerospace for 9-figures to Textron Aviation, I committed to helping other leaders achieve similar results as my next venture. I founded ETW, where I help senior leadership teams work better together at improving their organization’s most important number.  My main focus is to help leaders develop an intentional, high-performance culture that connects to financial performance. 

Through this work, my team and I have created a unique methodology called MIND (Most Important Number and Drivers). We help teams uncover the most important number to achieve and identify the work that drives that number. The MIND Methodology has evolved over time as we built systems that can be integrated into any organization, whether it is a for-profit, non-profit, or government agency. Our team at ETW works with senior leadership teams and every other team within an organization as we cascade the MIND Methodology to the front lines.  We work with organizations of all types and sizes located around the world.
