Most people don’t fail because they’re lazy. They fail because they don’t know what to do next. 


In this episode, Sharran tackles the biggest problem holding people back: useless advice. Phrases like “just do it” or “stay disciplined” sound great, but they don’t tell you what to do next. That’s where the Action Filter comes in. It's a tactical system that helps you break down advice into steps you can execute immediately. It helps turn vague advice into clear, executable steps that drive results.


Sharran walks through real-world examples from Michael Jordan, Marvel, and Steve Jobs to show how elite performers turn plans into results. If you’re tired of motivation without action, this episode will give you the clarity you need to move forward.


Stop listening to generic advice. Tune in to learn the Action Filter and execute your biggest goals today!


“Execution is what separates winners from wannabes.”

There's a lot of advice out there about building a business, but much of it feels theoretical or disconnected from the messy reality of day-to-day operations. Business School with Sharran Srivatsaa exists in that gap between theory and execution. Hosted by Sharran Srivatsaa, an entrepreneur and investor who has personally built and exited five companies across different sectors, this podcast is built on a foundation of direct, tactical experience. As the President and Managing Partner at Acquisition.com, Sharran now works closely with other business owners, giving him a unique, ground-level view of the common challenges and opportunities facing founders and operators today. Each episode focuses on stripping away the fluff and noise to discuss the specific strategies, mental frameworks, and practical steps that drive real growth. You'll hear conversations that tackle everything from marketing and management to investing and operational efficiency, all aimed at providing clarity and intentionality for the journey. This isn't about generic inspiration; it's for the underdogs and builders who are focused on measurable results. The insights shared in this podcast come from the front lines, offering a perspective that is both broad from his multi-industry exits and deeply personal from his current work guiding other companies. If you're looking for actionable guidance from someone who has repeatedly navigated the path from startup to successful exit, you'll find a valuable resource here.
