Today we welcome David Jones to the podcast. David founded Peak 10 (now known as Flexential), a hybrid IT infrastructure provider focused on colocation, connectivity, cloud, and managed solutions. David started Peak 10 in 1999 after being fired from a previous job. In 2010, he sold Peak 10 to a private equity group. In 2014, they sold again to another private equity group (who is still the majority owner of the company). David stayed on as Chairman until Peak 10 completed its acquisition of ViaWest in 2018, giving the newly formed combined company - Flexential - a national reach. Today Flexential is a multi-billion-dollar company. We cover many topics during our conversation with David, including… Surviving a recent critical health event & how it altered his sense of purpose The importance of recognizing and playing to teammates’ strengths Raising $1.5 million in 4 weeks for the original Peak 10 business plan Why expecting success can be a mistake The power of resilience in health, business, and life … as well as some of David’s accumulated wisdom from speaking with countless executives, founders, and investors.
