E33 The Unlock Moment: Ben Prouty – Know When It’s Your Time To Lead
In this episode I interview serial start-up entrepreneur and CEO Ben Prouty, whose experience at high-growth startups including Streetcar (car sharing), Lovespace (storage by the box), Shepper (asset inspection) and now Poncho (family support platform for working parents) taught him the stage of a company’s lifecycle that energises him and brings out his best as a leader. Ben brings a refreshing honesty to counter the assumption that entrepreneurs all want to be the next Zuckerberg or Musk – in fact he is at his best in the scrappy, early stages of start-up growth. This is a rare opportunity to hear from someone who’s been there and worn the t-shirt time after time, on each occasion creating strong, scaled businesses that disrupt their sectors using a fresh strategic approach and the power of technology.
