How Do You Cope?

How do you handle working with Donald Trump, and what happens when failure plays out in public?

John is joined by Anthony Scaramucci, Wall Street financier, broadcaster and former Director of Communications for Donald Trump.

Anthony reflects on how his childhood shaped his approach to work, and how it ultimately prepared him for one of the most high-pressure roles in politics today. He shares what the experience taught him about pressure, loyalty and knowing when to walk away.

Anthony also opens up about failure on a global stage, the importance of self-awareness and why integrity is so important.

Anthony’s book From Wall Street To The White House and Back is available now.
