On this episode of the Bohemican Podcast, we explore the life and times of Czech business innovators Tomas and Antonin Bat’a of Zlin, Czechoslovakia. Through two world wars and a communist take over, the Bat’a name survives to this very day. This is more than a story about Czech shoes. It is a story of good business sense, innovation, and perseverance. From the world famous Bat’a price standard to the early use of business air travel, the Bat’a business was second to none in central Europe. Come take a listen to 56 minutes of awesome-ness.
