The guy is great. Not only he's a great mind, but it's evident that he values human virtues like sharing knowledge and experience, connecting people with people, and has a kind of ethical mentality that is missing from many people in the crazy SV gold rush. I'd certainly want to have this guy as an advisor, a mentor, an investor and a partner to any social startup I would be a member of.
One of the best interviews I've ever heard.
Nice to have an interviewer that can keep up intellectually. Great conversation.
Reid Hoffman - powerful stuff and lessons from one of the nicest professionals in Silicon valley. I have a watched it twice becasue there is a lot to learn in the interview
One of the best interviews.
This was a super informative and candid interview with Reid Hoffman. I enjoyed the interview immensely and am ordering Reid’s book, The Start-up of You, immediately after posting this comment. Thank you!
Jason, as soon as I develop my next big product, I will send You a gift, just because You helped me so much and motivated me when I was down or was lost and without fresh ideas for my business! Thanks! As always a great intrerview!
damn , I spent my whole night watching the whole journalist interviewing.
Reid is such a brilliant and likeable person. Great interview!
Phenomenal. Just finished and I'm certain I'll rewatch parts of it. What does it say about our world that this has only half as many views as the Tim Ferriss interview on the same show?
Phenomenal interview thanks for also taking time to make the notes.
