From Doubt to Drive - Entrepreneurs Only.

This week with Mats Lederhausen, Entrepreneur, Leader and Investor with his platform www.be-cause.com/ and www.andas.io/

Mats talks with us about his 25 years of experience with McDonald's, Chipotle, PRET, Roti, and many more. He also shares his views on leadership, his investment philosophy, and why the WHY is more important than the WHO, and the WHO is more important than the WHAT. His views on the world are truly inspiring. Mats is one of the most reflective and philosophical interview partners we have had so far on our podcast, sharing his perspectives on food and the world

Our main learnings from this conversation are:

  • Think big, start small, scale fast.
  • Things can be your problem, even though they are not your fault.
  • The purpose of your company is bigger than your product.
  • There is no straight line to success ever.
  • It is in the moment of pain where we learn the most.
  • What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.
  • Your own optimistic posture is important in crises.
  • Are you ready to compete? Do the work.
  • In every wall, there is a door.
  • Eat well, work out, watch your diet.
  • Be a believer.
  • Your most important job is to make your job more important.
  • Run to the fire, not from the fire.
  • Most successful founders are the ones who are most critical.
  • It is critical to be critical.
  • People decisions are the most important decisions.
  • The WHY is more important than the WHO; and the WHO is more important than the WHAT.
