Why Most Leaders Fail to Scale — and How the Best Break Through
What if the very habits that helped you start your business are now the same ones holding you back from scaling it?
In this episode, Adam Strong sits down with Louisa Loran — former executive advisor at Google, Maersk, and Diageo — to unpack the hard truths about why most leaders stall out… and how the best transform themselves to break through complexity, chaos, and cultural traps.
You’ll walk away with practical insights on how to:
Spot the difference between busyness and true progress
Balance strong strategy with personal empowerment
Use collective intelligence without losing focus
Steer your company with discipline while staying human-centered
Create readiness for change instead of resistance to it
This isn’t theory — it’s real-world lessons Louisa gained advising global giants, translated for the everyday founder scaling a 6–7 figure business.
Want to exit your business but unsure where to start?
