-What’s the correct way to fire people from an organization when their vision doesn’t align any more?
-How did he receive his first investment of a million dollars in just a 2 minutes phone call?
-Things Kunal look for in a Startup before putting his own money
-What leads to the doom or success of a startup and entrepreneurs?
Kunal Bahl is often regarded as one of the early ecommerce entrepreneurs from India. And, his journey has been an inspirational one. Kunal graduated from the Jerome Fisher Program in Management and Technology, University of Pennsylvania. After completing his education, he took up a job at Microsoft in the United States but had to return to India in 2008 due to some visa complications.
Kunal joined Rohit Bansal, his childhood friend who was working for CapitalOne at that time to start Snapdeal. Kunal describes Snpdeal’s culture as “smart, generous and humble”. According to him, culture determines a company's pace of growth. In this podcast he shared how the Indian e-commerce company got its first angel investor 14 years ago.
