from The Scaling CEO · host Glenn Gow

In this episode, I talk with Ben Borodach, CEO of april, about why chasing fast growth can quietly damage long-term outcomes. We discuss how I should think about building a company in a regulated environment, how to handle pressure from investors, and how to decide when patience matters more than speed. Ben also shares how he uses AI to create leverage and how a CEO’s role must change as the business matures.
