She went on to earn a PhD and win the Woodrow Wilson, Fulbright, and Krupp Foundation fellowships, before following her brother, billionaire property magnate Sam Zell, into business.Leah believes that keeping her ego in check, being patient and maintaining a team small enough to hold one single conversation at a dinner table, have been the keys to her success.
