7 Shocking Entrepreneurial Lessons from a Shipwreck Survivor!

Welcome to the Online Prosperity Show and I'm your host Prosper Taruvinga! Today's episode features Ronan Leonard, a business mentor and innovation strategist who helps entrepreneurs and business leaders navigate complex business decisions. Ronan’s story isn’t your typical business tale—it’s got a bit of drama, a splash of high stakes, and a whole lot of insight. At just 23, Ronan found himself helping to rescue over 600 passengers and fellow staff from a sinking cruise ship off the wild coast of South Africa after the senior officers had abandoned them. Talk about a baptism by fire! For nearly a decade, he sailed the world as a casino manager, mastering the art of risk and reward, which became the foundation for his unique business strategies today.

Ronan’s journey didn’t follow the usual path. After years at sea, he tried everything from credit control for Reuters in the London financial district to living in India for five months. But he always had an intrinsic motivation to do things differently, which made him unsuited for the corporate world. That drive led him to build Intelligent Resourcing, where he empowers business owners to tackle adaptive challenges using the GiNI innovation framework—unlocking growth and implementing solutions that others overlook. With over 5 million YouTube views, Ronan’s insights are clearly hitting the mark.

He’s also a lifelong learner, having read over 450 business books in the last 7-8 years, and he's passionate about giving back—mentoring men and sponsoring over 25 young entrepreneurs in the last four years. Ronan's work is about more than just business—it’s about helping others find clarity and direction. His personal transformation—from surviving a shipwreck to mastering risk and reward—makes his approach both practical and deeply human.
