Background
Mark Yegge was CEO of a Wall Street firm from 1993 to 2005. The firm was sold to a top New York bank. That experience gave him an inside view of how institutional money moves and how good decisions get made under pressure.
Since then he has focused on teaching: books, courses, live events and long-form conversations for business owners and investors who want to think clearly about capital, risk and time.
His approach
Mark looks at AI, markets and business the way an operator does. New tools matter only if they change dollars, hours or decisions.
Use it first
He puts AI to work in his own businesses before he talks about it, so what he shares has been tested.
Decide before you buy
Rank opportunities by return, risk and fit before adding tools or disrupting what already works.
Keep judgment in charge
Technology changes. Sound judgment, trust and quality are what last.

As a business builder rather than a technologist: he uses AI in his own businesses first, then shares what works, what to ignore and how to keep human judgment in charge.
