Episode 26 Pete Stavros, KKR

Pete Stavros is a Partner & Co-Head of Americas Private Equity at KKR, as well as founder/chairman of Ownership Works, a nonprofit organization that partners with companies and investors to provide employees with the opportunity to build wealth at work.  Pete and the guys discuss the role of global investment firms like KKR versus middle-market PE groups, the personal and business experiences that led to the formation of Ownership Works and the activities of that organization.  There’s also discussion on how PE firms and individual businesses address fundamental social questions of wealth formation, equity and empowerment.  So engrossing, Andy and Charlie forget to make fun of one another, a first for MMM.
