Transitioning From Business To Politics: Who's More Likely To Succeed?

President Trump came to the White House from the business world, and his recently-fired Secretary of State Rex Tillerson was the CEO of Exxon. We’ve also seen Mitt Romney work in the corporate realm and also serve as a governor. Ross Perot from the early 1990s is another example.

But does the transition from business to government really work? And who’s more likely to make a true success of it?

The Show's Steve Goldstein is joined by John Paul Rollert, an adjunct assistant professor at the University of Chicago’s business school, to talk about that.

Steve Goldstein was a host at KJZZ from 1997 to 2022.
