Type: Organization

As of November 2026, Hermes has been mentioned in one podcast episode on PBD Podcast (Feb 2026). A 'shout-out' to the Hermès CEO is teased as an example of a leader handling controversy correctly (details not expanded in transcript).

Hermes is an Olympian deity in ancient Greek religion and mythology considered the herald of the gods. He is also widely considered the protector of human heralds, travelers, thieves, merchants, and orators. He is able to move quickly and freely between the worlds of the mortal and the divine aided by his winged sandals. Hermes plays the role of the psychopomp or "soul guide"—a conductor of souls into the afterlife.
