Devin: What do you see as your superpower?Paul: I thought a little bit about this because I’ve obviously heard the podcast before. I’m going to go with the analogy, and I’m going to say x-ray vision. By that, I mean that I can see patterns and networks of people and organizations and see how you can connect them.

Devin: What do you see as your superpower?Dan: I would say one of the things that I’ve been blessed with is the ability to win people’s trust and confidence, specifically leaders. I just have this chronic problem of thinking of others first, almost to a fault. I think that helps.“We all know what it’s like maybe to work for a boss that inspires us and pulls the best out of us,” says Daniel Cooper, CEO and founder of ROC Investments. “We also know what it’s like to probably work for a boss that

Devin: What is your superpower?Miah: I genuinely think my superpower is humility and patience. My superpower now is that I’ve lived a life trying to uplift other people—my children, my business colleagues, the people in my community.

Devin: What do you see as your superpower that’s enabled all this success?Will: Yeah, I think curiosity is a little bit of one and then just maybe a slightly unhealthy desire to succeed in, quote-unquote, the game of life. I know, obviously, there’s a lot more that goes into life than building a business and being successful at building a business. But I think in my career right now, that’s really what I’m focused on, is building something unique and making it big and kind of taking it mainstream

Devin: What do you see as your superpower?Ross: I’m fairly modest, so I don’t necessarily consider it as a superpower. Although I have goals and objectives and long-term aims, I am often so focused on what’s in front of me that I take each [step] unintentionally. It’s just the way that my mind works. I just kind of focus on what’s immediately required in front of me, which means that I’m, without realizing it, taking those bite-size chunks and steps towards that ultimate goal that I’ve set myself
