George Pillari has appeared on CNN, and been quoted in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, and Washington Post.
George was an EY Mid-Atlantic Healthcare Entrepreneur of the Year. As an undergraduate, he co-founded a company with two professors at The Johns Hopkins University. The company grew to more than 1,000 employees, went public, and traded on the NASDAQ. It is now part of IBM’s Watson Artificial Intelligence business.
He went on to work as a crisis manager at more than 100 companies and was a source of truth for a company’s board, investors, and lenders. In these high-leverage decision-making situations, Mr. Pillari identified the errors in judgment and poorly constructed decision-making models that were consistently present in businesses that were failing and organized them into The Seven Deadly Stupidities.
George has a B.S. in Mathematical Sciences from the Whiting School of Engineering at The Johns Hopkins University.
