Podcast host Penny Pritzker in a screenshot from a recent episode.
The Harvard Corporation’s 66-year-old senior fellow, former Obama and Biden administration official and hotel heiress Penny Pritzker, has a new podcast on Semafor, the newsletter and events company she happens to be an investor in, though they’re not disclosing that to listeners. The show is “presented by PWC,” or PriceWaterhouseCoopers, which happens to be Harvard’s audit and accounting firm, another fact not disclosed on the program. The Free Beacon‘s Ira Stoll writes:
An introductory promotion of the podcast features Pritzker describing the program as “conversations about leading complex organizations at a uniquely complex time.” The episodes so far have featured the CEOs of Starbucks and IBM making corporate-conference-circuit style observations about organizational change and managing through uncertainty. Pritzker has a co-host, Andrew Edgecliffe-Johnson, who adds a British accent. The show description identifies Pritzker as “investor, business builder, and former U.S. Secretary of Commerce,” but not anywhere specifically as an investor in Semafor or as senior fellow of Harvard’s Corporation.
Pritzker has been promoting the episodes from her LinkedIn account: “I sat down with my friend Arvind Krishna, Chairman and CEO of IBM … I was particularly struck by Arvind’s intentionality in nurturing authenticity and innovation across a global organization.”
Pritzker, a billionaire heiress to the Hyatt hotel fortune, shares some personal background as she banters with the guests. “My husband often says I’m a kind of person who runs towards a fire,” she said at one point. She also recalls, during high school, working at a hotel front desk. “You learned a lot about people and how to help people who are frustrated,” she said.
