Listen "Babar's Guide to Losing Yourself in Business | Classics with Kym Medina"
Episode Synopsis
What if getting funded means losing yourself?
Kym Medina is back to discuss the problematic colonial 'classic' Babar the Elephant + what happens when someone else's money changes everything about who you + your business.
We discuss how external funding disconnects you from your roots, how authority based on dazzle rather than competence creates imposter syndrome + the ongoing issue of entrepreneurs giving it all up... just as it gets truly profitable. A working biz, shouldn't be boring.
Look for more Classics episodes where we take books that definitely aren't about business + treat them as though they were biz text books.
Books discussed in this episode:
The Story of Barbar - Jean de Brunhoff
Winnie the Pooh - A. A. Milne
Matilda - Roald Dahl
The Emperor's New Clothes
Mr. Tickle
