It's a sin not to SUCCEED | What 1990s Czech Republic Taught Me About Business: Pavel Danek on Leadership Lessons from "The Ordinary Founder". Discover the raw truth about entrepreneurship leadership and why embracing failure is the ultimate key to building a successful business. In this powerful episode, host Tim Staton sits down with Pavel Danek, author of the brutally honest book "The Ordinary Founder: A Grit-and-Profit Playbook for Entrepreneurs". Pavel shares his gripping personal journey – from facing an €80,000 invoice crisis that nearly broke him to bootstrapping a thriving enterprise. Learn how everyday struggles can transform into leadership wins, and why shifting from an "I" mindset to a collaborative "We" approach is game-changing for long-term success. He also opens up about teaching his daughters the real side of entrepreneurship – the setbacks, resilience, and grit that no one talks about. If you're an aspiring founder or business leader tired of polished success stories, this conversation delivers no-fluff insights on turning failures into fuel. Whether you're navigating startup challenges, building team culture, or seeking inspiration from real-world entrepreneur failure stories, Pavel's lessons will resonate.
