Our personal stories and backgrounds always make us more interesting to other people. It’s natural - it adds a human touch, sometimes helps understand our professional decisions and paths we take, helps others relate more, and so on. On the other hand, sharing more insights into our professional backgrounds, about the ways our businesses operate, what are our processes, how we select startups we invest in or make business decisions–this is also very valuable. It can help your potential partners or portfolio companies understand your mechanisms and approach better and be more prepared for collaboration with you. So, a mix of both - your personal and professional journey and insights - is a recipe for a great conversation or, in this case, for a very interesting podcast. One of these was just published yesterday - check out Sergey Jakimov's conversation with Peter Ottsjö and Ingemar Patrick Linden on their Levity podcast.
