About Course

Have you been wondering what REALLY happened behind the scenes at wework over the past decade?

Well, Kelly and I were too. So we set out to find out what exactly happened to the “unicorn” start-up after it’s conception in 2010. And to dissect all the behavior of the players involved…

From co-founder and former Chief Executive Officer, Adam Neumann, to his wife – Rebekah Neamann (the cousin of Gwyneth Paltrow)…

From co-founder and former Chief Culture Officer, Miguel McKelvey to SoftBank Group’s founder, Masayoshi Son… and all the investors at Benchmark, J.P. Morgan Chase & Co, T. Rowe Price, Wellington Management, Goldman Sachs Group, and more, along the way…

What exactly was the mentality that kept the valuation of the glorified real estate business growing over the years? Why were analysts that saw through the numbers not listened to?

Was it lack of competence or simple ignorance? OR, was it that society has the tendency to let charisma override ethics? Join Kelly Paxton, CFE, PI and myself and find out!
