Failing Forward

Cincinnati native Pete Ruppert believes there are no straight lines to the top—even for a successful executive and Harvard Business School graduate like him. One of his first trials was as a student at DePauw University when he was academic probation and nearly missed the chance at an internship that later changed his life. And like most every entrepreneur, Pete has had his businesses fail, too. On episode 44, the St. Xavier High School alum and current CEO of Fusion Education Group talks about overcoming his fear of asking for help, the champions who have helped him through his failures and his mini-book, Limitless: Nine Steps to Designing Your Extraordinary Life.
