Description:

Mark speaks with Danny Warshay, Danny Warshay from Brown University. Danny is Professor and Executive Director at the Nelson Center for Entrepreneurship at Brown.

He leads thought provoking workshops on entrepreneurship and creativity around the world.

He began his entrepreneurial pursuits while an undergrad at Brown when he was a member of a software startup team company called ClearView, which then was later acquired by Apple.

Then he co-founded and sold companies and fields ranging from software to advanced materials, consumer products, and the media.

Danny has created a road map for entrepreneurs with his new book See, Solve, Scale: How anyone can turn an unsolved problem into a breakthrough success.

Key Takeaways:

 

  • Entrepreneurship is a Learned Skill: It is a myth that entrepreneurship is something you're born with. It is something that anybody can learn. There are fundamental principles for every entrepreneur to follow and find success in their endeavor.

 

  • Diverse Teams Matter: It is statistically proven that if a founding team is diverse and inclusive at the start of founding a company, they will be more successful. This means that everyone is asked and allowed to show up as their true selves.

 

  • Ikigai: Live a life with purpose and meaning. This is a Japanese philosophy that is rooted in being clear that every decision, action, and plan is part of your life’s purpose.

 

  • See, Solve, and Skill: Seeing a problem, finding a solution, and creating a product or service for the initial problem are part of the entrepreneurial equation. It is also important to know what you are good at and make sure you love your pursuits.
