At least since Simon Sinek’s famous TED talk “Start With Why”, more and more entrepreneurs come to the awareness, that the purpose of a business is the main driver for success and also provides guidance - especially in the time of struggle. Maybe even more important, only a purpose-driven business will lead to fulfillment of the founder and also of the employees.
Martin Pleissner is the Founder of Whypreneur Ltd., a company that has the mission to help purpose-driven entrepreneurs and leaders to set up a meaningful and fulfilling business. Martin studied aerospace engineering and has worked in the aerospace industry for many years, before he started his own business in 2014. From 2016 to 2019, Martin built up Frei Leben, a community of Cryptocurrency enthusiasts, that became very successful. At the time of the crypto price rush in late 2017, Martin found himself in a situation, where more and more people joined his community who were driven by only one purpose: getting rich quick. That was the time when Martin realized, that he needs to do something more meaningful and impactful and that he loves to work with people who want to make a difference in other people's life. This realization was the basis for the foundation of Whypreneur, which has exactly this purpose: transforming lives towards more meaning and fulfillment.
Some of the questions I ask Martin:
- Which value exactly is Whypreneur providing for Entrepreneurs? (09:08)
- Why do we want to make an impact and do something with meaning once we reached independence? (21:00)
- How do you help entrepreneurs to get from the survival to the impact mode? (30:29)
- How do you quiet down your mind? (38:44)
- Why did you choose to leave your well-paid corporate career in aerospace engineering to start your own business without any financial security? (48:28)
- Did you already have this awareness and mindset then? (53:51)
I enjoyed this talk with Martin a lot. He provided practical tools to learn who you are and I was really inspired by the way he connects the dots between business, spirituality, history, psychology and science to a coherent explanation of the philosophy of Whypreneur.
