Bitesize: How to Think Like an Entrepreneur #209

from The Inner Entrepreneur · host Paul Ryan

In this bitesize episode, Alan Gregerman challenges one of the most deeply held assumptions in business and leadership: that more knowledge always leads to better outcomes. Drawing on decades of experience working with organisations around the world, Alan explains why expertise can sometimes trap leaders inside old assumptions—and why real breakthroughs often come from not knowing. Rather than glorifying failure, he reframes innovation as a process of learning: testing ideas early, listening to customers, refining quickly, and staying humble enough to adapt as the world changes. About the Guest: Alan Gregerman is an innovation expert, speaker, consultant, and author of The Wisdom of Ignorance.    About the Host: Paul is a CEO, 8-figure business owner and mentor to successful entrepreneurs helping them design the life they'd love to live and the freedom they need to live it. 👉 Paul Ryan Official Website Work With Paul: You can book a discovery call with Paul here: 👉 Book a Discovery Call with Paul Ryan :  https://calendly.com/inner-entrepreneur-podcast/discovery-call-with-paul-ryan?month=2026-05
