One of the core shared traits across many founders who have risen to success is curiosity — a relentless desire to learn from others. Building a company can be lonely for many CEOs, but it doesn’t have to be; many of the strongest founders we know spend time learning from people who have traveled the road ahead, an incredibly powerful way to avoid making preventable mistakes.
It’s not easy to make time to seek those people out when you’re a busy founder. We spun up the Founder Playlist to solve this challenge, meeting CEOs where they are with short, simple, concrete audio clips with advice from founders of some of the companies we most admire, CEOs like Brian Halligan (HubSpot), Corey Thomas (Rapid7) and Gail Goodman (Constant Contact).
