In this episode of Show Your Value with Lee Benson, Lee is joined by Kass and Mike Lazerow, experienced founders and investors, for an honest conversation about the realities of building companies over the long term.

Drawing on decades of experience starting, scaling, and exiting businesses, including high-growth ventures and acquisitions, the conversation focuses on leadership under pressure, founder responsibility, and the often overlooked behaviors that determine whether companies succeed or fail.

This episode explores the less visible side of entrepreneurship, from constant failure and decision fatigue to the role of incentives, culture, and self-awareness in building durable organizations.

Topics discussed include:

• Why entrepreneurship is consistently misunderstood
• The role of failure as a daily part of the job
• How founders unintentionally become bottlenecks or destroyers
• Why incentives shape behavior more than motivation
• Leadership ego, fear, and accountability
• Fulfillment, purpose, and long-term value creation

This episode is for founders, CEOs, and operators who want a realistic view of entrepreneurship and leadership without shortcuts or surface-level advice.

Why is Booking.com worth more than the top four airlines combined, even though airlines control half of all traveler demand?

In this episode of Show Your Value, I sit down with Terry Jones (former CEO of Travelocity, founding chairman of Kayak) to unpack one of the biggest missed opportunities in modern business.

Airlines thought they were in the business of flying planes.
Booking.com understood it was in the business of owning the customer journey.

We dive into:

• Why airlines failed to sell the full trip (hotels, cars, experiences)
• How Booking.com built massive value without owning planes
• The platform mindset that separates winners from losers
• Why selling outcomes beats selling assets
• How AI is creating the next wave of disruption in travel and beyond
• What most leaders misunderstand about their own business model

This is a masterclass in platform strategy, business model evolution, and long-term value creation with lessons that apply far beyond travel.

If you’re a founder, executive, investor, or operator, this episode will change how you think about growth.
