Re: finishing school for founders
In recent months, I’ve seen young founders get 1:1 meetings with c-suite execs that are booked solid for months.
Leaning into the unrefined, barely out of college, whiz kid stereotype is a strategic sales move.

1. What are they wanting from you?
2. Who benefits from them being believed?
There are a lot of motivations that are not about truth, but rather, farming rage, fear and advertising dollars.
