Born Leader Episode 4 BONUS - Babak Hafezi of Hafezi Capital
The Soundtrack of Life

Born Leader is a podcast founded on the belief that everyone is a born leader and there are many paths to discovering your own potential.  We explore leadership through interviews with and profiles about everyday people who demonstrate we’re all born leaders.  Hypatian Institute, Inc. Founder and CEO Gaea L. Honeycutt hosts Born Leader.

In this bonus episode, I wanted to share a bit more from my interview with Babak Hafezi, CEO of Hafezi Capital. As we learned in Episode 4, his approach to business is informed by a global perspective and a background in conflict resolution and human rights. If you meet Babak, you’ll notice that he’s well put together, eclectic and sophisticated. After seeing photos of Babak on the web taking a spin at a DJ turntable, I was reminded of a friend years ago who revealed the song he always walked to in his head was Staying Alive by the Bee Gees. And so, that led me to think, “This dude has got to have a phenomenal soundtrack in his head.”

I’d like to thank international investor and consultant Babak Hafezi of Hafezi Capital for sharing the soundtrack of his life.  I’d also like to thank Therese Arkenberg for cranking out transcripts and making sure we’re taking care of business.
