Radek Sali | How to Build a Billion Dollar Business
In this episode, we sit down with Radek Sali - entrepreneur, former CEO and a leading figure in Australia’s health and wellness space.
Born in Scotland to an Albanian father and Czech mother, Radek grew up in Melbourne with strong influences in medicine, wellness and hard work. From managing a local cinema as a teenager to becoming CEO at just 27, he shares the early lessons that shaped his leadership and the decade that followed at the helm of a major business.
Radek talks about culture, re-imagining what business can be, the reality of stress and pressure at the top, and what life looks like post-CEO. He also reflects on giving back through Igniting Change NSW, supporting brands like Loco Love and The Beauty Chef, and what success means to him now.
