My guest today is Fred Schebesta. Fred is an award-winning business leader, best known for co-founding one of the world’s leading comparison websites, Finder.com. 




Finder.com was born out of a simple concept: to educate people and directly compare student credit cards. Over the years, it expanded and evolved to compare a range of products across different industries. Today, Finder.com compares virtually everything from cryptocurrency exchanges and wallets, credit cards and insurance to savings, travel, technology and electronics. Finder.com attracts over 8-10 million visitors per month and now operates in over 80 countries.




We cover:
The most challenging parts of working from home during COVID
Using narratives to communicate with his staff

Fred’s approach to eliminating digital distractions
Why Fred doesn’t have a TV
How Fred consumes the news
Having an emotional coach
