“You know, people say I have the Midas touch, like everything I touch turns to gold. They have it wrong, I only touch gold.” ~ Guy Kawasaki

 

In this episode of The Widest Net Podcast, I am joined by the incomparable Guy Kawasaki for a lively and thought provoking conversation about the remarkable people he has interviewed and the impact he would like to leave through his podcast, Guy Kawasaki’s Remarkable People.

Guy Kawasaki is the Chief Evangelist of Canva and the creator of Guy Kawasaki’s Remarkable People podcast. He is an executive fellow of the Haas School of Business (UC Berkeley), and adjunct professor of the University of New South Wales. He was the chief evangelist of Apple and a trustee of the Wikimedia Foundation. He has written Wise Guy, The Art of the Start 2.0, The Art of Social Media, Enchantment, and eleven other books. Guy’s knack for finding remarkable people and companies is the crux of our conversation and his career.

 

Here’s what you can expect from this episode: 
  • How marketing beacons have changed since the glory days of blogging to the prevalence of podcasts
  • What it takes to prepare for a well-done podcast
  • What makes someone remarkable
  • What VCs are looking for in pitches
