Accelerating The Talent of The Future with Shriya Nevatia and Anirudh Pai
Shriya Nevatia (@shriyanevatia) and Anirudh Pai (@ani_pai) of On Deck Catalyst join Erik on this episode to discuss:- Why you should look for a mentor a few steps ahead of you rather than seeking out the most successful person you can think of.- Why young people need to remember that the people around them at their level can teach them a lot and will become the next unicorn founders — probably sooner than you think.- Erik's breakdown of the career version of the Innovator's Dilemma and why you should take more risks earlier in your career.- What they've learned about mentor and mentee relationships.- Why being willing to look silly early for a small period of time is a big arbitrage opportunity.- What people can expect from the On Deck Catalyst program.Thanks for listening — if you like what you hear, please review us on your favorite podcast platform.
