Episode notes

We're not less intolerant than we were before. We're just running at a processing power. And if we sort of overlay that to the media, which is designed to hijack our attention and manipulate our emotions, it would take away that processing power. The by product of that would be that we appear less tolerant in all other aspects of our life. There is no need go into nuances because there is no processing power. Therefore we like authoritatin leaders a lot more in these chaotic times.

My guest is Indian entrepreneur and venture capitalist Kunal Shah who calls on his decades of entrepreneurial experience to discuss what he’s learned about what motivates people, and how observing trends hiding in plain sight has made him a runaway success in business.

We also discuss the many cultural differences between India and the West, what he learned growing up in the family business and how he applies it today, observing reality, why he dropped out of an MBA program, strategies for decision-making, and so much more.
