Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Dak Baweja - Create a Network that Works for You
Q: What advice would you give to both the young folks on how to best approach that, or to, what is your phrase, past gen folks, to be more mindful about that as well?
Focus on building authentic relationships and seek mentors who can open doors, while also proactively offering to help younger colleagues; the most valuable networks come from genuine connection and willingness to give back.
Farzad Moghaddam - Building Career Opportunities
Q: What would you say were some of the advantages you had coming from having done some time in research and in academia, and then bringing that skill set into industry, or that mentality or culture, or whatever it might be?
