*another end of year post*

last year I wrote down 20 lessons 2020 taught me and some of friends really liked it

It’s something I’d go back to and read

so I decided to do it again this year

A 🪡 on 21 lessons and observations I took away from 2021

Do an MBA or work for a Startup?
- an endless debate that keeps popping up online

As someone who's done both, here are my 2 cents on what are your possibilities with a Startup v/s an MBA

A 🧵

(Here, by MBA, I imply a tier 1 MBA and by a startup, I imply early to growth stage)

@jaaved Followed a week later complaining why they are not on the first page of search results already.

Kid has signed a bond. Had 3 month notice period too. Today, he’s free.

Work on your dev skills. Get your proof of work ready. Things will change for you.

Your new salary would be significantly more. You won’t care about the bond amount anymore.

Netflix and Amazon Prime should have a category - 'Dumb movies that don't require you to use your brain and can play in the background on your big screen while you scroll your phone'

Want to get the most out of a high-performing member of your team?

Give them a task and tell them the golden words - 'this is all you - do what you think is the best and show me the results'

Let that magic happen.
Do. Not. Micromanage.

Want more seniors to interview for your jobs?

Fix the interview process. It’s tiring. It’s far away from what a senior would do daily.

Talking to few seniors who want change but don’t have time to “prepare” for interviews.

Would like to design an undergrad programme which includes Microeconomics, Psychology, Game Theory, UX Design, Digital Marketing and Business Analytics as core subjects.

[Tanay Pratap @tanaypratap]

Talked recently to an acquaintance from college. I can see her career slowing down already.

In just one hour chat I was able to figure out the reasons:

1. Doing just enough for the job.
2. The “Oh! I know it all” attitude.

The elephant said: "You and I know, but the Lion has instructed the Donkeys to implement this order. Does a Donkey know the difference between an Elephant and a Giraffe?"

It is said that an elephant was once running away from the jungle.

[Gaurav Prakash ⚡️ @gauravprksh]

It was said: "But you are an Elephant, you are not a Giraffe."
