From Outside The Box: Back To Where It Started... StockX Co-Founder Chris Kaufman

Chris Kaufman co-founded StockX, but this isn't an origin story. We talk about what he learned watching companies destroy culture for quarterly gains, why constant layoffs cost more than just keeping good people, and what leadership actually looks like when you stop pretending you have all the answers. Plus: the Kanye visit, the first StockX trades, and why Detroit was the perfect place to build something weird and new.Chris wrote "Empathy at Work" because he's convinced being decent to people isn't just morally right... it's better business. After this conversation, I think he's right.(This is the first episode of a new/show I'm still naming. Outside The Box? Pursuit of Something? Unplanned Entrepreneur?
