Episode Description from the Publisher

This week Vance sits down with entrepreneur and investor Heath Hunter for a wide-ranging conversation about management consulting, private equity, family offices, artificial intelligence and what it actually takes to build and grow a business. Heath explains how private equity works, why the industry has become increasingly competitive and how AI is beginning to reshape white-collar careers. They also examine the cultural resentment of wealth, the difference between investing and gambling, why family businesses often struggle across generations and how parents can help their children develop grit in an increasingly comfortable world. Heath also shares the story behind his specialized data platform Blend Labs, his work with River Run Holdings and how Vance’s Interest-Based Communications course had such a powerful effect on his team. To connect with Heath you can find him at: Blend Labs: https://blendlabs.io River Run Holdings: https://riverrunholdings.com When not podcasting, Vance is invited to give talks on tangible communication skills. He teaches how to connect with employees, colleagues and family so that you can negotiate, have better relationships and achieve your higher goals.  https://articulate.ventures/lbc https://www.legacyinterviews.com/ #VanceCrowe #PrivateEquity #BusinessStrategy #Investing #ManagementConsulting
