This is the Leadership Journey series on the Choosing Leadership Podcast.

I believe we all have a lot to learn from each other's stories - of where we started, where we are now, and our successes and struggles on the way. With this series of interviews, my attempt is to give leaders an opportunity to share their stories and for all of us to learn from their generous sharing. If you know a leader whom you would like to see celebrated on the show, please send me a message on LinkedIn with their name.

In this episode of the Choosing Leadership podcast, Rune Theill, co-founder and CEO of Rockstart, takes us on a candid journey from his early days on a Danish farm to leading a purpose-driven investment platform.

Rune shares how embracing risk and adventure shaped his leadership style, and why building a values-driven culture is essential for long-term impact.

From navigating challenges in leadership to making strategic decisions that align with sustainability, Rune's story offers invaluable insights for any leader striving to create real change.

Tune in to learn how to lead with purpose, take bold risks, and build a mission-driven team that tackles the world's biggest challenges.

If you're ready to rethink your leadership approach, this conversation is a must-listen.
