767 - Michael Dell (Part 1): From a Tiny Dorm to Big Time Founder and Leader

The James Altucher Show

We all have heard of Dell Computers, Dell Server, Dell Monitors, and everything Dell. However, what's the story behind Dell? How did it get started? Who has the idea of breaking apart computers, and put them back again?

In this part 1 (of 2 parts) episode, Micahel Dell, an American billionaire businessman, and philanthropist. He is the founder, chairman, and CEO of Dell Technologies, came on The James Altucher Show to talk about his new book, Play Nice But Win: A CEO's Journey from Founder to Leader. He also brought us all the way back when he was a student in a tiny dorm room, breaking apart computers, how the idea came to him, and how he brought the idea to life and eventually became one of the world's largest technology infrastructure companies!

Listen to this Part 1 out of 2, and Part 2 will come out the same day too!
