Episode Notes

Mark Cuban is an entrepreneur, television personality and investor. He is the owner of the Dallas Mavericks, co-owner of 2929 Entertainment, and one of the main “shark” investors on ABC’s Shark Tank. Today, he’ll discuss the kind of leadership he thinks we need, both in government and business, to get us through this national and international crisis. 

Mark Cuban explains that, right now, we find ourselves in the midst of two pandemics: a viral one and a social one. At a moment like this, he says people who lead businesses need one thing above all from government leaders: certainty. However, he says that is nowhere to be found. So he says he feels a responsibility to take on a broader leadership role not just across his businesses but across society.
