Episode #53 The Horror and the Beauty of AI ft. Ryan Staley

In today's episode of Revenue Reimagined, we're joined by Ryan Staley, Founder and CEO of WhaleBoss.

Ryan has taught over 800 CEOs, VPs, and leaders how to grow their tech companies from $1 million to $30 million or more using the principles in his proprietary framework. He explains that he was attracted to sales because he saw the opportunity to be compensated based on results rather than tenure or promotion. However, he eventually hit a ceiling in his income and wanted to do his own thing, contributing to something meaningful while helping others. Staley believes that a certain level of "sickness" is required to become a CEO or CRO, as it requires a hard-driving personality. This episode also touches on the risks of AI if we don't learn how to use it responsibly, and if no regulation is ever introduced. While AI is an incredible resource, it does stand to cause a lot of harm in its path to mainstream use.

During today's show, Ryan shares his secrets on:

- the mindset of sales execs and high-ranking leadership

- what makes AI so great (and scary!)

- Autonomous Agents and what to expect from AI in the coming years

Any founder, entrepreneur, or business leader can steal the lessons Ryan shares in this episode and use them for their own success.
