Dave was CEO of Honeywell from 2002 to 2017. As Chairman and CEO of the industrial giant for more than 16 years, Dave grew the company’s market capitalization from around $20 billion to nearly $120 billion.

If you’re looking to make big returns in the stock market, investing in founder-led companies can really stack the odds in your favor. In fact, a 2014 study by professors at Purdue’s Krannert School of Management found that over a 15-year period, founder-led companies beat the market by over 3X.
