Obstacles Are the Best Opportunity for Innovation | Ben Pfisterer's Founder's Journey

"Some of the obstacles we faced were actually some of the best things that happened to us." Ben Pfisterer, Co-Founder & CEO of Zeller, is tackling the challenge of reinventing business banking and payments in Australia and around the world - but his path to where he is now hasn't been a straight line. Ben believes that that setting a strict roadmap can actually limit your opportunities for innovation. His advice? Set the general north star and follow that. Focus on buidling, and don't go at it alone. Get to know Ben in the latest episode of Straight Lines .
Straight Lines is a Headline video series. The path to building the world's next great company is rarely a straight line, despite how it may look on the outside. We shine a light on the circuitous paths that have brought founders from across our portfolio to where they are today.
Headline is actively on the ground across continents, seeing local trends up close, searching for top founders, and bringing them our world of resources. Once we commit to a team, we go to the ends of the earth - connecting entrepreneurs to each other, to customers, and to insights from distant markets - to help them win, bigger.
