In this episode of Invest: Insights, we connect with Corporate Bro Creator and the founder and chief corpitalist of Corp Capital, Ross Pomerantz. With a free-spirited blend of comedy and corporate culture, Pomerantz tells it like it is in the sales world — a daunting environment where he's managed to thrive. Linking the business world to the baseball diamond, a passion that would have turned pro if it had not been for injuries (and a taller, stronger build), he noted the most important pitch is always the next one. While Pomerantz describes himself as authentic, he's attuned to the need to also be what you need to be on certain occasions. He outlines the need to disconnect at times, poking a little fun at the rise-and-grind culture that to some extent entails 4 a.m. wake-up calls and cold plunges.
