In this episode of the ScaleX™ Insider Podcast, I'm delighted to welcome Chris Yeh—writer, investor, entrepreneur, and co-author of the groundbreaking book Blitzscaling, written with LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman.

Chris has had a ringside seat in the world of startups and scaleups since 1995. From garage-dwelling startups to Fortune 50 giants, hundreds of companies have turned to Chris for his insights on how the internet has radically transformed the way we build organizations. His work helps founders, VCs, corporate leaders, and policymakers navigate the chaotic journey of hypergrowth—and thrive through it.
