In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Pierre N. McDonnaugh, JD, LLM, a Connecticut licensed attorney with extensive experience in banking, compliance, and financial derivatives regulation. Dr. McDonnaugh holds a DPS from the Pace University Lubin School of Business, an LLM from the American University Washington College of Law, and a graduate of Howard University School of Law. Despite his impressive credentials, Dr. McDonnaugh proudly considers himself a "professional failure," as he believes that failure is an essential component of success in any field. Join us as we explore Dr. McDonnaugh's unique perspective on the relationship between failure and success and gain valuable insights into his career journey.
