I think that you’re gonna set yourself up to fail if you don’t have a mindset for change, and change isn’t a bad thing, but it has such a negative connotation.” 47:15

    Navigating the Startup Galaxy | Great Insights into Founding a Company

    Today Jepson sits down with Erik Boduch, the CEO of Revcast, Founder of 24 and Up, and co-founder of Once and Always Pendo to discuss startups and various aspects that go into them such as the importance of blissful ignorance and why that is necessary to get a startup going. They talk about what a venture studio is vs what a venture capitalist is, the studio being more like a co-founder setup where they’re a lot more involved and it gives the early stage companies a lot more resources to help them succeed. Startups 1:30Product market fit 6:25Pivoting 12:4024 and Up, venture studio vs venture capitalist 18:10Common themes and issues for founders 21:40The generative AI space 24:00Where product and AI is heading 33:00Picking an appropriate partner to go to market 36:50Hiring senior vs junior talent 42:00Internships 46:40Mental reset 49:15“In the majority of cases, startups need to have that direct relationship and control of the relationship with those early customers because without that direct relationship and control, they have a very important bottleneck or factor that’s out of your control and that becomes very difficult, especially if they don’t have leverage…I think it’s important that startups in the majority of cases aren’t overly reliant on partnerships for that sales component.” 37:20 Twitter:@eboduch

    Better Approaches in Leadership with Romain Fouache | Understanding Your Business

    In this episode Jepson talks to Romain Fouache who is the CRO of Dataiku and who comes from a technical background. The cost of failure is going down and the ability to identify the failures beforehand is rapidly increasing, which is going to save companies so much more time in analyzing their data. “How do you give people the ability to do many things while feeling confident in the fact that the things that are done are the right things?” Romain gives some tips on the middle ground companies should be shooting for when trying to give people autonomy, but at the same time establish enough boundaries so that things don’t get out of hand. Romain’s story and background 1:30A mature timeline 5:10Why Europe hasn’t taken a more aggressive VC culture 10:00Becoming aware of Dataiku 23:15Democratization success stories 28:05Being a sales leader and communication 33:05Making sure work doesn’t consume all of you 37:15The future of the company and the next generation 45:40“I think the exciting thing there is the cost of failure, so if it takes me weeks and I’m working for you, if I come back next week and I say it didn’t work, OK? But if I come back in a year and a half on one project and say it didn’t work, and you’ve paid me for a year and a half, that’s a very different comparison. That’s something I’m very excited about is the cost of failure of a bad idea is quickly going to zero.” 6:24

    Insights and Challenges of AI with Ed Watal | Artificial Intelligence and the Quest for Self Awareness

    Today Jepson sits down with Ed Watal, the founder and principal of Intellibus, an IT strategy consultancy with 65 transformation consultants. Ed gives advice for IT strategy and architecture due to his business acumen and deep IT knowledge and he has also built and sold various Tech and AI startups. Jepson and Ed talk about self awareness and AI, and what makes us individuals and separates us from machine intelligence. They discuss World Digital Governance and rules and ethics that need to be set in order to make sure AI tech is not abused, especially with the general public that just doesn’t understand how it works. Coming to the US to work for Deutsche Bank 7:00The banking industry and archaic systems 13:30Building good culture 20:15The future Ed hopes to have a voice in 25:20Self awareness 31:30The infographics 39:00Falling prey to external validation from AI 46:20World Digital Governance 51:15Potential problems people should be thinking about with AI 59:30Jepson’s view on AI and ethics 68:50“If you think of all discovery as just art and it’s just this giant jigsaw puzzle with the X that you were trying to solve, then maybe that’s what it is. It’s like solving a jigsaw, but solving a jigsaw presumes that you sort of know what you’re trying to get to and you have an intuitive, or some sort of higher sense of the outcome. The question is, does AI have that awareness or that sense of an outcome? Where does that sense come from? They say it comes from intuition, from something else. People who are spiritual will say it’s your higher self, you’re connected to something in the Universe, it depends on whether you’re purely Darwinian, spiritual, or somewhere in the middle.” 37:24

    Scott Paul's Entrepreneurial Journey | Finding Consistent Happiness

    Today Jepson talks to a good friend of his, Scott Paul, who has done a lot of great things and created various businesses, his first being a drone business in 2008 after he realized how useful these would be in a time when helicopters were more often used, but very costly. He spent all his money on this little startup and hiring an employee, but it quickly failed, which was rough, but it was a good first lesson in entrepreneurship. He immediately went from there to the next thing, creating another business and selling it, and then worked with Disney. His first startup 2:30Scott’s first exit 10:05Acquisitions have changed 15:00ChatGPT and unlimited information 24:45Linkedin and getting blacklisted 29:00Finding consistent happiness 38:35Religion and diversity 48:30Knowing truth 55:25Grief 60:00 “It’s never on my mind to ‘Oh I gotta go to work’ or ‘I gotta put in hours for this person.’ and it hasn’t been for 12 years, and that gives me a little bit of freedom to ask ‘What do I want to achieve? What do I want to do? Work on? Accomplish?’ I will not ever give that up. I will be out here in a TP zenned out before I ever go back. I will keep that time freedom ‘til my dying day.” 7:26

    The Power of Storytelling with Amy Grubb | Connecting with Your Audience

    Amy D. Grubb, Ph.D., is an internationally acclaimed leadership expert and speaker, currently advising the FBI on digital transformation. With 20+ years of experience, she has implemented change initiatives, advised C-suite leaders, and received awards for her contributions. Dr. Grubb is known for her expertise in organizational culture, performance, and coaching. Jepson and Amy discuss storytelling and the importance of using this tool to connect with audiences and gain the attention of those to whom you’re speaking. Presenting new technology can at times be somewhat bland or boring unless you get people’s emotions involved by conveying a relatable story. New tech and how to make it known 3:05Storytelling 6:30Making the hero’s journey exciting from the start 11:45Understanding your audience 25:50Her experience with 9-11 27:05Advanced storytelling 35:35Being more vulnerable and not regretting it 45:45Criticism of her earlier talks 48:15Convincing people to change 50:50 “When I talk to, say for example, law enforcement personnel, I use different analogies and different language than if I am talking to aviators and using different analogies than I would do if I’m talking to financial people, or physicians. There’s a different language, there’s a different cadence to it, but it has to have meaning for them and it has to be real for them. It’s the same stuff, it’s just speaking a different language and I think that’s how you engage people.” 26:30
