He also hosts the very popular podcast The Art of Excellence where he interviews highly accomplished people to better understand what makes a person excellent in what they do. Incredible past guests include: John Mackey (Whole Foods), Al Roker, Jimmy Wales (Wikipedia), Deepak Chopra, Scott Boras & Steve Case to name a few notables.\n\nGlen began his career at The Walt Disney Company, and then eventually went on to spend 20 years as an entrepreneur in a variety of sectors. He was a founder and executive at several Silicon Valley tech startups, a high-rise real estate developer, and an investor advisor at Goldman Sachs.\n\nThis Episode\u2019s Heavy-Hitters:\n- It took Glenn 120-130 rejections, multiple maxed-out credit cards, and an empty bank account before he raised his first round of capital for his first company.\n- Glenn\u2019s been a part of multiple major market crashes; the dot-com bubble and the 2008 financial & housing crises, and got pretty good at pivoting as a result.\n- The Art of Excellence Podcast started out originally with the idea of focusing on success, but as Glenn developed the show concept he decided that excellence was less subjective and more valuable a topic to dissect.\n- It took Glenn decades and an interview for an assistant role he was hiring for to put the breadth of his success into perspective.\n- Glenn tries to cross domains in his show and dig to find people that are hiding behind the scenes; to help his audience learn from unexpected places and keep a strong balance of guests and subject matters.\n\nCheck out Glenn's show, The Art of Excellence: https://glennzweig.com/podcast/\n\nIf you enjoyed this episode, please leave a review/rating: https://ratethispodcast.com/thepozcast\n\n\xa0#thePOZcast is brought to you by our friends at Interseller \u2013 the prospecting + outreach platform of recruiters and sellers.
