Win or Learn: An Entrepreneurial Mindset – with Spencer Gore
What does it take to build an award-winning business, challenge the status quo, and stay relentlessly focused even through setbacks? In this powerful episode of Beyond Breakeven, host Alex Deakin-Mckay sits down with Spencer Gore, CEO of the European Medical Journal, serial founder, and fierce believer in values-first leadership.
From selling toast out of a classroom window to leading a multimillion-pound business, Spencer shares the pivotal lessons behind his mindset: how being diagnosed with severe dyslexia later in life reshaped his perspective, why failure is essential, and how he built a high-performing culture by hiring for values, not just skills.
