In this episode of The Cred Podcast, Mack McKelvey, founder/CEO of SalientMG, is in conversation with Mickey ALAM KHAN, CEO of Luxury Roundtable, and global luxury expert, brand builder and turnaround specialist.
Renowned for his ability to anticipate and capitalize on market shifts, Mickey has founded influential publications such as Luxury Daily, Mobile Marketer, Mobile Commerce Daily and American Marketer, and successfully navigated four business exits – making decision-making his specialty. Mickey shares his approach to swift decision-making (24-48 hours max), why you can’t live with regret, and the few times a coin comes into play.
“You make the decisions for the times you live in," he says. "You cannot second-guess yourself. Yes, you'll make bad decisions. I made a couple of bad decisions in my life and you know what? They brought me to where I am today.”

You’ll also hear Mickey's unique take on the value of a college education, not as a qualification, but as a critical life experience that teaches social navigation, adaptability and interpersonal skills – something that even the likes of Messrs. Zuckerberg and Gates could have benefited from, in his view.
"One of the most successful people in media – somehow one of the best kept secrets – not only did Mickey completely disrupt marketing media, there are so many people who owe their company exits and career acceleration to him," Ms. McKelvey says. "We know who we are!"
Tune in for a fascinating conversation on the mindset that drives success, how to trust your instincts and why timing is everything.
