The Task, The Team, The Individual - In this episode of ‘Run The Business,’ Ant talks to a CEO and Founder who started his career as a British Army officer, and now claims to be ‘running obsessive’ and fitter now than when he was in the army.  Ben Legg worked in executive jobs at McKinsey, Coca-Cola, and was former COO of Google Europe, before starting his new company, The Portfolio Collective.


This episode explores how Ben applies leadership lessons learned in the Army, and from working in high level roles at international companies, to support the network of business founders he now works with, as well as applying them to his running.
