Many landscapers feel they can't even take a day off, let alone a sabbatical. Dean DeSantis, the president/owner of DeSantis Landscapes, tells Editor Brian Horn how he took a sabbatical.
Dean DeSantis recently took a three-month sabbatical, and he talked to Lawn & Landscape Editor Brian Horn about how he was able to take his time off. When many landscapers feel they need to be on the clock 24/7, DeSantis says he unplugged — and it was for the best.
DeSantis explains how his team led while he was away, why he created a spreadsheet of tasks he did on a daily basis, and talks about an acquisition he and his company executed while he was overseas.
Dean was also our cover story in April 2024, explaining how his company expanded to multiple branch locations.
