With partners like: Virgin Atlantic, United, Spirit, and Norwegian; Simon became a world record holder for the amount of inflight magazines he’s launched and published, with over 250 Million copies of magazines to date. Simon’s business plummeted from projections of earning $150 million to nothing, almost overnight due to the pandemic. How he has been able to work his company back to the top is a harrowing story of grit, creativity, strategy, and resilience, which he's detailed in his latest book "Equanimity: The Diary of a CEO in Crisis" In this episode, we discuss the importance of risk taking, what it was like to go from $150 Million in revenue to nothing, not panicking in emergency, the problem with Glassdoor, the necessity of leaders, what hitting rock-bottom can teach you, the autopilot mindset people are stuck in, and much more.
