“Math & Magic: Stories from the Frontiers of Marketing,” hosted by Bob Pittman, CEO and Chairman of iHeartMedia.
In this new episode, Bob speaks with Brad Gerstner, Founder and CEO of Altimeter Capital.
When Brad Gerstner, a “simple kid from Indiana” set out to build a brand-new investment firm in the swirl of the 2008 financial crisis, his friends and advisors told him he was nuts. But that company, Altimeter Capital, has become an incredibly successful vehicle– not just for profits, but also for enabling entrepreneurs to do good. In this week’s conversation, Bob learns why Brad needed to build Altimeter (it comes down to some advice from Jeff Bezos), how a conversation with his kids inspired him to establish the Board Challenge– an initiative to quickly diversify corporate boards, and how watching his dad rally a small town to take on a goliath inspired his faith in politics. Plus, Brad shares a lesson from Burning Man and how it changed his worldview.
