Let’s face it, every time you watch a biopic about a massively successful businessman–like, say, Steve Jobs, Ray Kroc from McDonalds or that guy from Blackberry–they’re almost always a real jerk. Most of us as men would love to be massively successful, but do we really have to be a d*ck about it?

My returning guest is author and podcaster Dominic Brightmon, and let’s just say this conversation is ‘game on’. For starters, businessmen aren’t the only successful men out there. Does the power of being a jerk–or not–depend on what you actually do for a living, and or what you’re trying to accomplish?

And by the way, being a ruthless nasty guy isn’t the only way to be a d*ck on the road to success, is it? And on the other hand, there’s GOT to be a secret to being an effective self-promoter while still being likable and even charismatic, right?

How can some (and I mean VERY few) truly arrogant men still pull that off, for example…say, Muhammad Ali? How does the infamous and currently popular topic of self-awareness play into all this?

What’s the difference between true influence and common bullying? Can you really take yourself less seriously and still be a man of extreme influence? How is that possible? And by the way, am I really the only one whose high-school girlfriends stuck their tongue their ear when making out?
