Digital Detox Retreat in Bulgaria

On this episode of Grownlearn, Zorina sits down with Loic Potjes—Executive Coach, former Corporate & Scale-Up CEO, tech investor, and Managing Partner—who’s coached 40+ CEOs across 17 countries. We dig into what actually scales a business: a crisp 80/20 strategy, the right “engine” (your core team), and smart use of AI that goes way beyond meeting notes and automation.

Loic breaks down YPO’s value (it’s growth, not “networking”), how psychometrics (Map & Match) surface your real strengths, why many founders should stop “running the machine,” and his three levels of AI—especially Strategic AI, which he uses in 90-minute workshops to unlock new markets, products, and business models without the old-school strategy-consulting price tag.
Guest: Loic Potjes — Executive Coach to Scale-Up CEOs, Chairman & investor, regular media contributor, YPO member.

Are you stuck on your growth path at work? Do you at the same time have challenges in your personal life? “Well. That’s because there’s only one of you”, says Isilay Cabuk – Executive Leadership and Personal Growth Coach. 
Approaching your issue from the perspective of a holistic person, which we all are, is the only way, likely to give lasting results.
