Listen "Madhu Shalini Iyer | From Good To Great"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, our host Preethy Padmanabhan sits down with Madhu Shalini Iyer — entrepreneur, Managing Partner at Rocketship.vc, and former data scientist — to unpack her contrarian perspective on Good to Great by Jim Collins. 💫Madhu dives deep into why some companies make the leap while others stall, reflecting on themes like Level 5 leadership, confronting brutal facts, and balancing the three essential levers: doing what you're best at, solving problems you’re deeply passionate about, and building a sustainable economic engine.Through her lens, we explore how founders can create equilibrium between a culture of discipline and the risk-taking spirit that defines entrepreneurship. Her insights reveal what it truly takes to scale with clarity, lead with conviction, and unlock 10X growth in today’s startup landscape.
