Today’s guest is Tom Peters, author of many best-selling books including In Search of Excellence, Extreme Humanism, and his newest book, Tom Peters’ Compact Guide to Excellence. Tom was also on the first list of “100 most powerful people in Silicon Valley” from 1965 to 2000 and in 2017, he received the Thinkers50 Lifetime Achievement Award. He also served in the Navy, worked at The White House, and has a Ph.D. from the Stanford School of Business. But most importantly, Tom Peters has a Ph.D in “putting people first.”

In today’s episode Tom talks about the two people who most influenced who he is and why, his thoughts on Jack Welch and Elon Musk in terms of leadership, why shareholder value is the wrong way of thinking about business, and if leaders today are giving more of themselves to their people than they did years ago.
