Somehow today’s episode of Sound BITES  managed to start and end with baking conversations.

Our guest, Bob Buda, is the CEO and founder of Buda Consulting - Specializing in database management, security, disaster recovery, and business analytics.

Bob has been an expert in the field for a while now and was actually among the First Certified Oracle database administrators.

Bob walks us through identifying opportunities, optimizing businesses, how baking became the domino that ultimately kicked off Buda Consulting, hiring well, creating a high-trust culture, and being adaptable in high-stakes environments.

Bob and his team design and deliver solutions that help organizations safeguard and optimize their data. So it makes sense that trust and adaptability are high on the list of values.

This episode resonates extra with us and this week's guest has an incredible story. MIT? Check, YCombinator? Check, Google/Youtube? Check and Check. What if I told you, at different points, Phil Ou walked away from all of those (in fairness, he returned to MIT). Phil, CEO of Blossomer walks us through what drives him, his approach to product management and innovation, how he approaches complex problems and the formation of his company. A great episode that is a masterclass at identifying and navigating life's transition points while recognizing one way and two way doors. Thanks Phil!
