Learning from Leaders Live: Navigating Growth, Y’all Street, and Building in North Texas
In this special live-audience episode of Learning from Leaders, we sit down with two influential business minds: Drew McKnight, Co-CEO and Managing Partner of Fortress Investment Group, and James “Jim” Litinsky, Founder, Chairman and CEO of MP Materials and JHL Capital Group.
This episode was recorded in front of a live audience at Old Parkland’s Debate Chamber in Dallas and moderated by Lili Clark, Vice Chair of The Cary Council and Senior Associate of Lyda Hill Philanthropies | LH Capital. Our guests dissect what is driving the momentum behind North Texas’ explosive growth, the launch of the Texas Stock Exchange (nicknamed “Y’all Street”), and the leadership required to build lasting impact.
Jim shares the remarkable story of how he acquired a rare earth mine out of bankruptcy and turned it into a company vital to the national security of the United States. Drew reflects on the purpose behind the idea of Y’all Street and why Dallas is poised to be the next great financial hub.
This episode explores bold bets, balanced leadership, and what it means to invest in a region’s future. Listeners will also hear candid thoughts on leadership, risk, mentorship, and how values like resilience and brutal honesty have driven these two leaders to success.
