Speaker 1: takes to build a competitive brand from the ground up,

6
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 1: You've come to the right place. I got my start

Speaker 1: in radio, went on to build MTV, have spent my

8
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:26,120

13
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 1: opportunity to learn from others and positions like mine and

14
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 1: to let you in on their secrets. People who make

15
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 1: big decisions with big consequences every day, like founder and

16
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 1: CEO of Boom Supersonic Lake Seul, who didn't let them,

17
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 1: they say, or stop him from resurrecting the dream of

18
00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 1: profitable supersonic aviation. Doesn't matter what you've already done. What

19
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,760

22
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,440

34
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:02,559
