Description:
In this episode, I speak to Meeta Malhotra, someone who dons many hats. Currently, she is the founder and editor of The Hard Copy, an excellent publication on branding and design which I write for, and through which I have gotten to know her well. But before that, she made a name for herself as a partner at Ray & Keshavan, India’s once-premier design agency, before it was sold to advertising conglomerate WPP in 2013. From then, Meeta has been a serial investor, entrepreneur and mentor. I’ve had some excellent conversations in the last two years with Meeta thanks to the work I’ve done for her publication, and I count myself fortunate to be able to do so, benefiting from her wisdom and experience. I was very keen to have her on this show not only to get her insights but also to talk about something apart from what we always end up talking about!

In this interview, we speak about:

How if fundamentals are in place, everything else works out.

How to charge a premium beyond having technical skills.

How to not be scared of making mistakes

On the two methods of reading - the rabbithole and the hurdle race

Building the ability to zoom out and looking at the larger picture

The power of compounding and how to go about “networking”… And what IS a network, in the first place?

Two things that you need to survive over the next few years - adaptability and resilience
