And more!

I had a great time with Andy where you’ll learn:

• What it’s like living with the fear of failure, but why even the best hitters are still able to have a few losses

• How he assesses opportunity early and his process in picking talent and building things from scratch

• What he’s learned about crossing racial lines and building trust and getting stuff done

• Where he’s failed by not growing opportunities fast enough

• And more!

Please enjoy this week’s episode with Andy Cates!
