You'll hear opposing viewpoints today as Big A and Wally discuss the differences and strengths of optimists, realists, and pessimists. Does one "win" over the other? We discuss the importance of blending different perspectives
—whether you're a galvanizer or deeply analytical—to make more informed and balanced decisions as a leader in business.
