Paul: How can I do that in a fundamental way that includes business and a business structure? For me, the foundational structure was to create it all digitally, really. And that is really what’s taking us past the pandemic and into now, into 2023.
[00:06:21]
It’s interesting that you identify as an artist and also as a business person. How do you find the boundary? It starts with the vision, the creative element, and then it develops. You truly have to if you’re going to be an entrepreneur, you have to know business.
[00:09:17]
One of the best decisions I ever made was getting into tech. I graduated with distinction from the digital marketing institute. The best technologies I developed came through problem solving. It’s very lucrative, it’s very challenging, and highly creative at the same time.
[00:11:29]
Best decision ever made really was as. You were talking to the CEOs of those companies. What was the easiest thing that they could start doing that they weren’t right? It was really about having the ability to control your data.
[00:13:30]
Hiring and firing is not easy. It’s very difficult to find the right people. When the Pandemic hit, it was kind of one of those situations where you’re like, oh, my God, we’re going to make sure the staff was right. But the big takeaway is that, you know, really lean on other experts in the industry.
[00:15:45]
When was the first time you let go of control or delegated something out? Probably when we started developing tech. I can be too trusting and I’ve learned not to be so trusting and in a good way. I’m not a highly controlling leader. But I like to know exactly who’s in the organization.
[00:17:38]
When you think about legacy, what do you think of and then what type of legacy would you like to leave for yourself?
