Scott Galloway, or ‘Prof G’ to his fans, is one of the most influential business thought leaders in the world. Host of The Prof G Show, one of the most popular business podcasts in America, he brings his wisdom to his millions of followers and fans who hang on his every word. Scott is unique for his philosophy that people shouldn’t follow their dreams, but instead find something they’re good at, and improve and hone it to a point where they’re recognised for their talent. The author of four New York Times bestselling books, Scott’s expertise ranges broadly, and this conversation does, too. Scott goes over the difference between million dollar and billion dollar businesses, how he sees business leadership, and why people overrate the importance of founders.

Whoop Founder: How I Built A $3.6 BILLION Company & BEAT Apple! Will Ahmed

Will Ahmed is the founder of Whoop, the fitness monitoring app worn by LeBron James and Serena Williams, and which goes toe to toe with Apple, Google and Amazon.

Will is the classic example that business and entrepreneurial drive follow on from being obsessed with a problem. After repeatedly getting injured in his college sports career, Will became obsessed with understanding his own body. He read over five hundred medical papers and realised the product he was pining for didn’t exist, so he invented it.

Will has one of the most original perspectives on how to bring your personality to your business that we’ve ever seen. Employees at Whoop get a bonus if their sleep is good, and the company is ruthless in its priorities to make sure it’s only focused on a couple of things at a time. All of this means Whoop has some of the best wearable tech on the market, despite only a fraction of the resources of its competitors.

They do this by often asking themselves one question. A question that Malcolm reveals, and explains why it’s crucial. It’s from the big decisions we take, and the big questions we ask ourselves, that our greatest happiness derives from. We’ll let Malcolm explain it from here...
