So the Gary V article
last week predictably stimulated a conversation in community, which brainfooder
Darren Bush expertly help steer, resulting in this
excellent blog post which does the job of fairly representing each position, and also in the end, providing a strong rebuttal to Gary V’s original provocation. My learning? Proximity matters for gut hiring, how deleterious it is depends on how far it extends beyond the founder. Going to do a brainfood live on this at some point - anyone want to join a show on ‘gut hiring’? Let me know in reply to this email!
