The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett

De: DOAC
  • Resumen

  • I was a broke, university dropout, at 18 I built an industry leading social media marketing company, and at 27 I resigned as CEO. At 28 I co-founded Flight Story – a marketing and communications company, and thirdweb - a software platform, making it easy to build web3 applications. I then launched private equity fund, Flight Fund, to accelerate the next generation of European unicorns. During this time I decided to launch 'The Diary Of A CEO' podcast with the simple mission of providing an unfiltered journey into the remarkable stories and untold dimensions of the world’s most influential people, experts and thinkers. If you enjoy the show, please hit the follow button! That's a small way you can help us carry on doing this, thank you for listening.

I needed this!

I've listened twice already, and I believe this is worth listening to again, multiple times, and at different stages in one's life. Thanks to you both!
