Working with Great People Details
Working with Great People
I think the number one thing in having a great entrepreneurial career is working with great people. It may seem incredibly obvious. You are surrounded by a lot great people here at Stanford and when you think of a lot the entrepreneurial success stories that have come out of this university - Yahoo, eBay, Google - you tend to think of a lot of the financial rewards and the incredible success that people have.

I think it is actually easier than you think because you have done it earlier in your lives. You probably have had a teacher, a coach, a professor, somebody who took that special amount of interest in you during your early academic career. T...
