From Maxine Clark leveraging her shoe business background to create Build-A-Bear Workshop's interactive retail concept, to Shazi Visram's advice on translating success from one venture into the next, the episodes highlight a common thread: sometimes your greatest asset isn't what you know, but your willingness to apply it somewhere unexpected.
