Episode #256 features Shernaz Daver, one of Silicon Valley’s most
respected executive advisors and communications strategists, who
has worked alongside leaders including Steve Jobs, Netflix
co-founder Reed Hastings, Khosla Ventures founder Vinod Khosla
and Waymo/Udacity founder Sebastian Thrun.
In conversation with Vidit Agarwal, Shernaz reflects on a
remarkable journey shaped across India, Japan and the United
States — from growing up between cultures as part of the small
Zoroastrian community to navigating the inner circles of Silicon
Valley’s most influential founders and companies.
She shares stories from Motorola, Electronic Arts and Sun
Microsystems, the rejection that changed her trajectory, the
unforgettable moment Steve Jobs told her she had done a “terrible
job” marketing a product, and the lessons she learned working
alongside elite founders and operators.
The conversation also explores insecurity, ambition,
storytelling, AI, burnout, hype versus reality in Silicon Valley,
and what separates visionary leaders from merely successful ones.
Please enjoy exploring your curiosity.
