????What business or technology person do you admire most? Why? ????I'm a professional admirer -- you can learn amazing lessons from watching what others have built, and how they've accomplished their missions. Entrepreneurs like Jack Dorsey, Tony Fadell, and Elon Musk who design products and create businesses in historically staid categories; Marc Benioff, who has built a $22 billion company by re-writing the rules of enterprise software; andLarry Page and Jeff Bezos, who've focused on world-changing innovation as opposed to the incremental improvements we get from most blue chip tech companies. And, of course, Steve Jobs. ????What technology sector excites you most? ????I hear cloud computing is pretty hot right now. The principles of the cloud -- elastically scalable resources, simplification of complex technologies, and the democratization of software -- extend to many industries that are now facing significant change and disruption: health care, manufacturing, financial services, and many more. We're going to see an incredible increase in the velocity of business as everyone in the world can connect to partners, colleagues, clients, and suppliers instantly. ????What do you do to live a balanced life? ????I try and leave work by 2 A.M. ????What is one characteristic that every leader should possess? ????Remain deeply passionate about what they're doing. Great businesses are built by teams that utterly love what they're working on. ????Is business school necessary for entrepreneurs? ????If by "business school" you mean "reading Andy Grove's Only the Paranoid Survive," then yes. |
