Joel Peterson (Former Chairman - JetBlue)

My guest today is Joel Peterson, one of the best business teachers in the world. He attended Harvard Business School and served as CEO of the Trammell Crow when it was the largest private commercial real estate development firm in the world. He then went on to serve as the chairman of JetBlue Airways for 12 years.

Joel has launched or backed over 250 companies. Many of these companies are household names like Bonobos, Trunk Club, Asurion, & Vivint.

He is recently authored a book called Entrepreneurial Leadership. As he says, it is about the art of launching new ventures, inspiring others, and running stuff!

Finally, He is a professor at the Stanford Graduate School of Business, teaching classes in leadership, entrepreneurship, and real estate. If you want to be a better leader, build a better business, or be more effective on a daily basis, you will really enjoy this conversation.
