Episode Synopsis
In episode #09 of Tahoe Minds, Brett Wilson, former CEO of TubeMogul and General Partner at Swift Ventures joins me. He walks me through his successful career as a consultant, how getting his MBA at Berkeley Haas helped boost his career, and his entrepreneurial journey.
He has lots of good insights on everything that goes into starting a company: Building a great culture, what types of people to hire, tips on fundraising, and what changes when you take a company public. His company was built by maintaining an equal "do : say" ratio, and he talks about how being self aware and constantly evolving to solve a larger problem is one of the keys to building a successful company.
The camera stopped around 35 minutes... unfortunate as the last 15 minutes were my favorite to record.
