The Hypomanic Edge of Successful Entrepreneurs: John Gartner

John Gartner, Millie Myers, Valerie DiCarlo, Harish Saluja

Think about the most successful entrepreneurs you know.  What are their most noticeable traits?  If you said “energetic”, “competitive”, “outgoing”, and “in desperate need of sleep that you know they’ll never get”, then you’re describing the idea of hypomania in a nutshell.  John Gartner, a Baltimore-area psychologist whose groundbreaking book, “The Hypomanic Edge”, addresses the role that hypomania plays in the life of a successful entrepreneur, using case studies of hypomaniacs you may have heard of:  Christopher Columbus, Alexander Hamilton, Andrew Carnegie, and others.  John joins “The International Capitalist” David Iwinski to discuss his ideas, and why a little hypomania can go a long way in business.
