In this episode of The Heidrick & Struggles Leadership Podcast, Heidrick & Struggles’ Adam Howe sits down with Shawn Bushouse. Throughout his career, Shawn has spent time on multiples sides of large and small businesses, from start-ups shipping their first order to global enterprises with market value nearing $300 billion. He has led teams of varying sizes, both scaled and sold companies as well as purchased businesses, and led venture capital and private equity–backed businesses.
In this interview, Shawn shares his biggest lessons on being an effective executive in both start-up environments and inside a corporate, what the biggest differences and similarities in these environments are, and how he’s adapted his own personal leadership style as he transitions between the two different types of organizations. He also discusses some of the culture trends he’s seen in start-ups transitioning into larger, more established organizations.
