What It Takes

About this book-as-podcast

Stephen Schwarzman draws on his career building a large private equity firm to share lessons on investing, hiring, and managing crises. He argues that the hardest problems attract the least competition and that avoiding losses matters more than chasing gains. The book also covers entrepreneurship, market cycles, and how to think clearly when a deal goes wrong.
