Ever wondered why some leaders thrive while others crumble under pressure. In our next episode of MarketPulse Pros and Pioneers we're joined by Mark Musselman, an executive coach and former CEO, who took over a$30 million business at just 30 years old. But the real story, he lost it all, and that's where the lessons begin. Mark shares the brutal truths about leadership. No one talks about like why caring too much for your people can actually damage your business and why CEOs hide their struggles even from other CEOs, as well as how vulnerability could be the most underrated leadership tool of our time.

Mark:

you don't drown by falling in the river, you drown by staying in it. I ended up taking over the family business at 30 years old with 300 employees and 30 million in revenue, and knew enough about myself to know that I didn't know all I needed to know to run it. Having that as a background, this idea of you take care of the people, the business will take care of itself, you have to take care of the people and you have to take care of the business.

He also dives into how AI is shaking up leadership, what remote work is really doing to productivity. And why? Founders need to stop pretending and start getting real. If you are a leader, entrepreneur, or just someone who wants to do business better, this one's for you. Join us 27th of August at 3:00 PM UK. Time for the full episode with Mark. I.
