Ginni Rometty is a legend. There’s no better word to describe someone who has 40 year career at IBM culminated in a 8 year stint as CEO and executive chairman. It was a real honor for us to have her on our show and talk about her historic career at IBM, her lessons on overcoming adversity, hard work and more. She surprised us on more than one occasion - including asking us questions!

Her new book “Good Power: Leading Positive Change in Our Lives, Work and World” is a delight and we highly recommend it. We had a real blast doing this episode. Enjoy!
