Description

This week on Great Chat, we talk about knowing when to walk away. We share our own stories of leaving at the peak of our careers to enter new industries, and unpack recent departures from Nat Friedman, Daniel Gross, and Suhail Doshi, as well as the great returns of Ryan Peterson at Flexport and Ty Haney at Outdoor Voices. We also add perspective on the "996" culture and explore how Anguilla is making $$$ from the AI boom.

Mercury is back as the headline sponsor for season two! Mercury is a financial technology company, not a bank. Banking services provided through Choice Financial Group, Column N.A., and Evolve Bank & Trust; Members FDIC.
