episode S2E3: Family First, On and Off the Course (feat. Scott McNealy) cover

Description

Episode 3 of The Golfing CEO features a guest who almost perfectly embodies the title of this podcast: Scott McNealy, co-founder and former CEO of Sun Microsystems, and father of PGA TOUR standout Maverick McNealy, as well as three other boys who reached higher levels of golf than most of us can only dream about. Join Derek and Scott as they discuss leadership, competition, using golf as a strategic business tool, and why Scott chose to put four boys in the same bedroom, even though there was plenty of room not to. * Enjoying the show?

S2EP1: Against the grain, and better for it (feat. Ray Lane)

Welcome back to Season 2 of The Golfing CEO, where Derek Belch explores how far dreams, drive, and a dose of delusion can take us in the pursuit of the impossible. Joining him to kick off the second season of the pod is former Oracle President & COO Ray Lane, who invested in Derek’s company nearly ten years ago and has sat on Strivr’s board ever since. Join Derek and Ray as they talk about Ray’s decision to take the Oracle job (despite strong opposition from his personal network), why he chose to go into Venture Capital (again, despite conventional wisdom from those around him), and what makes for a successful startup. * Enjoying the show?
