Growth, Gratitude, and Pinball Machines: Richard Blank’s Unconventional Leadership EP | 154

In this episode of Life's Checkmark, I chat with Richard Blank, the dynamic CEO of Costa Rica’s Call Center. Richard’s story goes from growing up in Philadelphia with a love for Spanish, all the way to building a thriving business in Costa Rica. He talks about breaking the mold, dealing with expectations, and why communication is his secret weapon, plus how he uses everything from neon lights to pinball machines to create a workplace where people truly grow. If you’re ready to hear about betting on yourself and picking up real-world skills you can use anywhere in life, you don't want to miss this!

 

Key Takeaways:

  • Bet on yourself and take bold chances
  • Build real language and communication skills
  • Stay humble but persistent in your journey
  • Create a company culture that truly supports growth
  • Old-school wisdom still works in business today
