Beyond Clean With GEM

S3:E15 – Dan Wagner with Triple S talks about the “Power of Why”

Dan says that once we understand the why to cleaning, that then creates the passion for obtaining the end result.

He goes on to explain the Triple S program he presents as, “The Power of Clean.”  That has now become the “Power of Why.”

They talk about the 22, ACE regional campuses around the U.S., most of which are Triple S members.  You can now get the Academy professional development the two are talking about from almost anywhere across the U.S.

Did you know that Dan and his wife both gave up being lawyers?
