From Yext to Roam: Howard Lerman’s Second Act

The hardest company to build is the one you start after you’ve already succeeded.


After scaling Yext into a platform powering millions of businesses, Howard Lerman chose to start over with Roam, the “Office of the Future,” where humans and AI work side by side from anywhere.


On Grit, he joins Joubin Mirzadegan to talk about the solitude of leadership and what happens when you stop building for Wall Street.

Guest: Howard Lerman, co-founder and former CEO of Yext, and founder and CEO of Roam
