Gymshark CEO Explains His Strategy For Global Success - Ben Francis | Modern Wisdom 619
Ben Francis is the CEO & founder of Gymshark.

But there are some principles Ben has developed to survive this chaos.
Expect to learn what 3 traits Ben has observed in all the high performers he's met, how his upbringing helped shape him into a successful CEO, Ben’s thoughts on modern masculinity, how what the world needs from fitness culture has changed, the biggest red flags to watch out for when recruiting new talent, what founders don't know about the challenges of being a CEO and much more...
