Are you ready to discover what happens when bold leadership and innovation come together? In this episode of the Grow Think Tank podcast, I sit down with Jeff Lu, Founder & CEO at Akool, an AI-powered video platform that has skyrocketed with an unbelievable 37,000% revenue growth. AKOOL is the No.1 on the 2025 Inc. 5000 list. Jeff pulls back the curtain on how he’s blending cutting-edge AI with video production while building a culture where creativity, risk-taking, and open communication thrive. We talk about why psychological safety is the foundation of breakthrough ideas, how collaborations with academic institutions fuel innovation, and why transparency is key to driving team accountability. Jeff also shares how leaders can transform failures into learning opportunities and why meticulous execution is just as important as visionary thinking. If you’re a leader who wants to inspire innovation and turn it into real business growth, you won’t want to miss this conversation.
