182: Chosen as the 3rd CEO of the company he Co-Founded - What can YOU learn from his story?

Ryan Buckley - Co-founder & CEO - Scripted

Back in February of 2017 I read an very interesting blog entry by a guy named Ryan Buckley. The title read, "On Being the 3rd CEO of the Startup I Started."

Now, truthfully, I had never heard of Ryan before I read his blog post on Medium. But, after reading it, I wanted to learn more about this man who co-founded his startup and became the CEO nine years later. Nine years later? Yes!

In this interview, Ryan not only describes his humble ascent to leading Scripted, but he is also very candid about:

• He feelings about being overlooked by his investors when they looked for a new CEO
• The actions he took to turn the company toward profitability
• How he focuses his team to align them with the needs of his customers

I really enjoyed speaking with Ryan. And, I know you'll enjoy hearing from a fellow Founder whose kind, compassionate, determined, and measured leadership is well worth paying attention to.
