In this episode of UH-OH Conversations with Cohesive Leaders, Dr. Troy and Ben-Jamin Toy chat with John Lowe, the former long-time CEO of Jeni's Ice Creams and current co-founder of Amuck Consumer. John shares his fascinating career trajectory from practicing law and working as general counsel at GE during a global financial crisis to leading a hyper-growth creative ice cream brand.
The heart of the conversation dives into a massive UH-OH moment: waking up to realize that after rapidly scaling into a new production facility, the company's cost accounting and ERP system were completely out of whack with the actual cash coming in. John opens up about the sleepless nights, the vulnerability of calling his private equity investors for help on day one, and why being transparent is always a leader's best asset. Tune in to learn why you do not have to be a lone wolf to be a great leader, how to manage the transition from corporate to creative spaces, and why raising a red flag early can actually save your career.
