In today’s episode we have the pleasure to interview Steven Pivnik, author of “Built to Finish”
Steven is a keynote speaker, best-selling author, business advisor, and serial entrepreneur specializing in the Information Technology market. He grew his last company, Binary Tree, to over 200 employees across twelve countries before a successful exit to a 4-billion-dollar competitor, Quest Software.
When he’s not speaking or climbing one of the seven summits, Steven advises other founders and entrepreneurs looking for a similar corporate growth and company sale journey
In this episode you’ll learn how Steven discovered triathlons as a way to improve his health and became hooked on the sport. About the importance of passion and perseverance in achieving goals, lessons learned from his entrepreneurial journey, including the value of learning from mistakes and the power of visualization, how anyone can be an elite athlete, and why everyone should dream big and go after their goals.
We hope enjoy this incredible conversation with Steven Pivnik!
