IT’S NOT WHO YOU ARE
BUT WHAT YOU DO
NO SOUL
BAD COMPANIES HAVE
IT’S NOT ABOUT IDEAS
IDEAS ARE COMMODITIES
IT’S NOT BEING COOL
BEST PRODUCTS ALWAYS WIN
IT’S NOT FAKE GROWTH
YOU NEED SUPERFANS
IT’S NOT BEING PERFECT
CUSTOMER CARE IS KEY
SHINE BRIGHT
GOOD COMPANIES’ SOULS
NEXT?
WHAT’S
EFFICIENCY & EXECUTION
TEAMS ARE GETTING SMALLER
WIDESPREAD OPPORTUNITIES
ENTREPRENEURS ARE MORE VIOLENT
SCALE IS COMING
OLD INDUSTRIES ARE THE NEW FASHION
