Shai Davidai, Assistant Professor Columbia Business School I'M THAT

    • Entrepreneurship

"Since October 8, my professional reputation has been dragged through the mud. Most of my colleagues won't speak with me, I have been getting so much hate that I've had to grow a thick skin very quickly because at first, it was just too much. I could not, and I still cannot understand how people can harbor so much hate in our hearts for someone they do not know.

You know, I jokingly say, 'At least give me the honor of knowing me before you hate me. Maybe you'll find something to hate. But at least give me a chance.' We've lost many, many, many friends."
