Innovative Methods in New Markets: Growing Despite the Odds

Abstract

Sean Leas – International Executive

Bringing people together is hard. Start-up stakeholders fall apart, and Joint Ventures fail 40% - 60% of the time. What’s the secret sauce? For this executive, travel, learning, listening, results-orientation, and Empathic Leadership have made all the difference. He integrates two companies, multiple markets, a collection of cultures, and scores of systems. Recalling his early adventures traveling and listening to a diverse group of professionals in the dot-com days, he says, “I learned a fortune.”
