This episode is with Ben Francis MBE, the founder and now the CEO of Gymshark, the global gym brand that is worth billions.

Gym Shark started here in the UK in Birmingham, when Ben was in his 20s and working for Pizza Hut.

This is a conversation I have looked forward to for such a long time- there is no one like Ben in the UK, that has built such an iconic company in his 20s. His net worth is over billion dollars, and at the age of just 31 has been named the UK’s youngest billionaire.

His story has a real rags to riches theme and on paper he’s the epitome of success…and yet he talks so openly about realising when to step back as a leader, constantly learning from others and working on his weaknesses, and being fully transparent about all of this in the hope that it might inspire other young leaders.
