Let's Get Entrepreneurial | Founder Execution

Let’s Get Entrepreneurial is a diagnostic podcast on founder execution. It covers why it breaks, how failure mechanisms propagate, and the control systems that determine whether startups scale or stall. Hosted by entrepreneurship educator and angel investor Professor Gary Palin with serial entrepreneur Ryan Budden, the show examines how founders execute under real startup constraints. Each episode analyzes the structural challenges that decide outcomes: decision fatigue, execution risk, startup KPIs, founder control, hiring systems, go to market execution, and the systems that allow execution to survive growth. Rather than startup hype, motivational advice, or founder stories, the podcast breaks down the mechanics of execution inside real companies and the repeatable structures founders build to turn ideas into operating results. The Founder Execution Architecture series maps the complete framework.
