(By some estimates, the U.S. healthcare system wastes about $765 billion a year.)

On this episode of How Success Happens, Alpert shares her strategy for a winning pitch, how to surround yourself with a team that complements your strengths and weaknesses and how to disrupt a relatively traditional industry.
