Have we hit a turning point in the Startup mindset? With numerous examples of massive growth and crazy valuations having very negative consequences, perhaps it's time to think differently about growth. @ashkan puts this into context.
"Creating value, driving growth, refining what your value proposition is and being great at what you do" Sean Alford SVP at @J2global talks with WatchMojo CEO @ashkan. His advice: figure out what you're really good at and pursue that passion.

Has a lot of potential but SF firms don’t get media. So if it’s trying to be a media platform, it needs help. Lots of it. – at Dorval, Québec

When you build a biz you don’t get to follow as many folks as you like. Met @EmmaVigeland at @SALTConference last month and was very impressed with our chat. Understand why a madman (that’s a compliment!) like @cenkuygur would recruit her to his team. Great interview. – at Toronto, Ontario
I'm the one being interviewed for once! And it's a good one.
I spoke with @WatchMojo's @ashkan last month about many topics, including my response to #MeToo, free speech hypocrisy, the prescient topic of right-wingers being kicked off platforms, and more!
