Stepping down to allow someone more passionate and a better fit for the role is so incredibly rare...especially in Silicion Valley that filled with so many egos and emphasis on titles. This was the most impressive segment I've seen in a while... Thanks for posting!
I wrote that down “what’s the most important thing you could be doing right now?” I’ll use that question in every area of my life moving forward so I can always focus on what’s going to bring the most benefits and impact towards that specific area. That is indeed a great question to ask yourself often. Thank you for sharing your story and experience with us, much appreciated.
The worst decisions are made by oversimplification of life. Life is complicated and we’re the product of our decisions. So those motivational snippets might lead to a disaster. Questions followed questions until the point you can’t literally give any sane answers. Such as: what’s the important thing I could be doing? Short term? Sit straight and drink water. Long term? Give your parents a call. Then you find yourself as working for your bills
Incredible! It's quite rare to find a combination of self-awareness, sharpness, ambition and humility. Stepping up and down as necessary. Be like Sisun!!
"I think great things are never built by people who knew how do things all along, but by those who have the resilience and grit to try, fail, and iterate towards their mission". That's give me more hope now, I am on my way to start my first startup. Thanks for sharing

Awesome to watch... i also had similar experience, but i worked most as consulting innovation in different companies to find or build new products or ways to sell or make new designs. They all had the times to rebuild them self to stay in the market. I love my work, because its always a challenge to help companies like yours. I think its total "normal" that a challenge is always a chance, and that only hard work can build something what we customers love. In the same time, I learned that's unbelievable important to have a clear written down vision, were you want to stay in 15 years with the company. Otherwise companies often lose their target and run in a circle. Many companies don't have a vision. They only have a mission = mission statement. But this is not enough. I enjoyed watching this "interview". Always nice and helpful to learn from other peoples mistakes and learning and mix it with own experience.
This changes my perspective on PMs because the ones that I have seen only schedule meetings and assign tickets that the software developers create, like they don’t do that much
Wow that's inspirational. Although I do think he got really lucky on the journey. Meeting the right people combined with a sense of curiosity in the projects he was doing.
Yes the right person with enough motivation coupled with exceptional opportunities, has a high chance of getting great results. There ar epeople doing what he is doing and you won't hear about them because they are failing, going bankrupt, struggling etc, you only hear the success stories
It's easy to say "let's keep on trying", but let me ask, "Who is going to pay for all these failures ?" At the end of the day, it's all about the amount of money you have to sustain you through all these failures. A CEO's job for a start-up it's actually very simple...."begging for money". If you somehow can beg someone to give you lots of money, then you can afford to have more failures, but if no one gives you the money, there will be no trying for failures, no matter how much tenacity you have. It's all about the $$$$.
Key Takeaways: 1. As PM, always ask "what's the most impactful thing you can do at the moment"? 2. Discover arbitrage opportunity - existing hangover recovery products in South Korea and other countries in Asia, and bring that back to silicon valley 3. It's less about how smart you are, but the grit you got.
🤘Thank you Sisun for sharing your story. Can’t wait for you to talk about Xoju and Ramper in the next episode. Some questions I would like to ask in person: Xoju seems like a business that marketing and branding is so crucial, so how come you start such business when you’re not interested in marketing? Also what led you to Ramper (of all the different services and projects in Web3, why web3 SDK?)
@@entreprenuership_opportunities sorry, no I mean - when is it coming? It says 1/2 in the title. Really enjoyed this one, so was wondering when the next one is coming out?
Whole bunch of nothing learned from this except that once your company starts making a decent amount of money, you're probably going to sell it/make someone else do your work.

We are glad this story gave you a support. Good luck on your journey :)
This entire interview blew me away! So much wisdom in one human…phenomenal!
Ayyyy another fellow Waterloo engineering student. Definitely impressed by a lot of the students here.

eo가 이런 점이 좋아요. 전에 인터뷰했던 창업가들, 기업가들을 다시한번 찾아가서 인터뷰하는 점. 너무 흥미롭습니다. 또 다른 동기부여가 되었어요. 다시 한번 파이팅 해야겠어요 🤟
Dude seems to be an incredibly savvy and self-aware businessman and entrepreneur. Impressive stuff - keep on building!
this guy just seems like a solid nice guy..I like his energy, nice story very nice..thanks for sharing
'Novelty and exploration' part hits me. Thank u for sharing your story.
I feel the same way after being at FAANG for almost 7 years. Sometimes big great companies offer you comfort but not growth.
아무생각없이 플레이한 영상인데 너무 좋네요 ㅌㅇ 멋져요!!
❤ Waterloo!! Used to recruit from there for years!
Thank you for sharing your life!!! What an inspirational journey.

This was very personal and real. Nice, I enjoy these types of interviews.

That's a genuine guy! Thanks for sharing!
Really amazing to listen to Sisun’s story and it is very inspiring!
정말 좋은 인터뷰에요
최고입니다! 듣고싶던 얘기:)

Title should be. 10’years of cheap VC money to back projects that can’t profit so they can go public and cash out
😅
Exactly :-))
Amen
😂😂
Lol. Yes!
Always big fan of what you do, Sisun!
시선님, 어려운 시간이었을텐데 깊은 내면의 고민들 솔직하게 나눠주셔서 감사합니다. 젊은 나이에 하기 힘든 지혜로운 결정 내리셨네요. 앞으로도 꾸준히 이어나갈 새로운 도전에도 응원 보냅니다!
Makes a lot of sense

Very honest and insightful interview
09:00 to 9:20 That's the reason while Silicon Valley fails at digitising brick and mortar retail :D
So random, I've been in Kenya for the last 3 months doing the same thing!
so inspiring

I love this guy 🥲
those images are not for the Kenyan suburbs but the slams.
That was great. When is video 2 coming?
Sure thing!

Good video
I just have a feeling this video is part of a start up idea he is testing also
전에 나오셨을때보단 뭔가 고생한 얼굴에 눈빛이 초점이 음...
Cool
Bruh he's jacked af
Sorry, I tought it was a Joma video.
❤️
What I want to hear from my old generation
Waterloo engineering 👀
He looks massive in the thumbnail 😮
I'm from Kenya and of all the things in Kenya, the images of the slums were the things he found worth sharing 😂🚮
뭔가 더글로리 전재준 캐릭터 닮으심
I don't like the ideology of saying "world class", it takes time and years to build that around a business organically, consistently and sustainably
Yeah you're clearly going to do something else based on my experience too, where are the newton cotes jobs anyways
막혀있는 것이 뚫린다. 긍정적인 사고관이 전제되어있는 스타트업씬, 인문/정치/ㄱㄹ서적을 많이 봤더니 의심이 많아진다. 뭔가 팍 두뇌가 열리는 느낌이다. 사람에 대한 전제가 다른 영역(다양성, 열린사고, 실패를 긍정적으로 받아들이는 문화)
Things that I learned from 10 years in Silicon Valley: Nothing 🎉 (joke)
Whole bunch of nothing learned from this except that once your company starts making a decent amount of money, you're probably going to sell it/make someone else do your work.
He does NOT look 31, sorry
How old does he look then?
Thumbnail doesnt do him justice. Ever since steve jobs, black turtle necks have been abused by and now associated to scammers.
Thumbnail is supposed to represent money, not companies.
:D
He looks old for a 31 year old.
Well he worked a lot
What a hack
