Today on At the Podium with Manuel Amezcua, we’re sitting down with a long time friend of Manny’s, Amir Syed.
Amir is the child of Iranian immigrants who fled in the midst of war. The Syed family ultimately settled in Chicago where Amir’s father Hassan undertook many small business opportunities to keep food on the table and support his family.
Through these experiences, Amir earned an MBA in street knowledge, and learned the value in being a businessman that someone else can refer to and trust.
Amir has now grown multiple businesses to achieve massive success - these ventures include funding over $1 billion dollars in home loans, and his newest project, Go Coaching.
In this episode you’ll find gems in the form of practical business lessons, but more importantly, you’ll get a first hand account of the philosophy and mindset it takes to take your business to the next level.
