Profiles in Success

Profiles in Success go beyond the radio interview, offering a more complete view of each leader’s story. While our on-air conversations capture key moments, these profiles create space for a deeper, thought-provoking exploration of the experiences, values, and perspectives that shape how they lead. This is an evolving series designed to extend and enrich the conversations we start on air.

Executive Leaders Radio is built on a simple premise: understanding how CEOs think and lead. With over 800 CEO interviews conducted each year, the platform delivers consistent, high-level insights into business leadership, executive decision-making, and real-world growth strategies.

Because nobody meets more CEOs than Executive Leaders Radio.

Herb Cohen, Founder and Host of Executive Leaders Radio, is an accomplished entrepreneur and a highly active interviewer of CEOs. He has founded multiple ventures, including 800-THE-PROS Marketing Management Company, the Pennsylvania Private Investors Group, and QuiqMeds.

Through Executive Leaders Radio, Herb conducts 800+ CEO interviews annually, primarily featuring executives leading companies generating $10 million or more in revenue. This high-volume CEO interview platform provides direct access to real-world insights from business leaders actively running and scaling organizations.

In addition to his work interviewing CEOs, Herb has been involved in entrepreneurship initiatives across higher education. He co-founded Temple University’s Center for the Advancement & Study of Entrepreneurship, the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton Entrepreneurial Network, and Fairleigh Dickinson University’s Entrepreneurial Center, and was asked to assist in the formation of entrepreneurship programs at Drexel University, Immaculata University, and the University of Maryland.

Known for his signature question, “What were you doing from 8 to 14, and how does it impact what you’re doing today?”, Herb focuses on uncovering the deeper “why” behind CEOs. His interviews go beyond surface-level business topics, exploring the formative experiences that shape leadership, decision-making, and long-term success.

Profiles in Success focuses on the moments and experiences that don’t make it into a short-form interview.

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY?

I had a great time. Herb said “ I knocked it out of the park”. He also asked if I would come back some time to finish…which I would love too. Thanks Again.
