Back in 2009, Chris Dixon wrote a blog post called "Man And Superman," in which he talks about, among other things, what separates the best leaders (or CEOs) from the rest. Most companies (or leaders) pull off one great coup, riding those as long as they can before fading away. Rarely do they repeat with the same success. The same can be said of investing; you can make a killing from one huge exit, but many have watched their coffers shrink in the attempt to turn one big hit into two, three, five.Joel Peterson isn't a superman, but he does have a long history of successful growth capital investments -- across a number of industries. He's the founder of Peterson Partners, a private equity group that's made 50 investments since 1995 and has half a billion under management, as well as Peterson Ventures, which invests in startups.
