Ep. 183: Cal Basketball shaped Dave who was drafted by the Boston Celtics, only to be denied an NBA career because of a player’s strike and injury. But he pivoted to a career in finance and now serves as Co-CEO of Dimensional Fund Advisors.
In the 25 years since he joined, the firm has grown from $10 billion in assets under management to nearly $700 billion. You will learn:
- How to use powerful storytelling to effect changes in corporate culture.
- How to hire “characters with character” rather than clones in your organization.
- The case for involving your most junior people early on in evaluating important hires.
Our BONUS RESOURCE for this episode includes Don’s favorite quotes from today’s episode and a reflection question so you can apply Dave’s insights.
