Maxim Wheatley - Episode 165

“ My hot take is the people who say ‘Higher slow, Fire fast’ are extremely weak entrepreneurs”

Maxim Wheatley, is an inspiring young man. He’s spent his professional life as somewhat of a misfit toy and cowboy!

Fortuitous events led him to building his current business, Jet Patient, which is disrupting a mammoth…the US Medical Industry.

He currently finds himself as the CEO of a business aspiring for a $25bn valuation within the next few years.

Maxim’s worldviews are uncommon due to being an immigrant living the American Dream.

He has garnered a unique perspective of business and leadership after studying Cognitive Science and Psychology, and also having successfully transacted an Exit from his first business, Life Fuels.
