Show Notes

Ep. 153: This prominent businessman serves on the board of directors at TD Ameritrade, a company founded by his father, and acquired by Charles Schwab in 2020.

Whether it is financial services or sports, Ricketts is a big believer in the power of culture, a belief that was reinforced after he donned a fake beard and glasses on Undercover Boss.

Working odd jobs around Wrigley field, Ricketts discovered something that vindicated his family's focus on culture: "a contagious love for the organization." The leadership lesson, said Ricketts, is as clear and crisp as a walk-off homer: "People should seek to be a part of something bigger than themselves and have a love for the organization in which they work."
