The Founder to Leader Podcast unpacks what it takes to grow from founder to leader. 

Each episode turns real dilemmas into practical insights from three perspectives: a founder who’s been through it, a leadership coach who guides others through it, and a researcher who studies it. 

We zoom in on the challenges rarely discussed in the startup world, such as co-founder tensions, hiring missteps, and the growing weight of responsibility. 

Founder to Leader is Denmark’s most established leadership development programme for founders, delivered by Copenhagen Business School and the Danish Industry Foundation. 

New episodes every other Wednesday, starting November 5, 2025.
