Looking forward to joining Masters of Scale Summit in San Francisco, October 20–22!
Building companies that last requires more than great ideas. It takes a willingness to challenge assumptions, rethink how organizations operate, and continuously learn from one another.
I'm excited to connect with founders, entrepreneurs, and leaders who are pushing boundaries and exploring new approaches to innovation, leadership, and long-term growth.
Grateful to @ReidHoffman, Jeff Berman, and the @mastersofscale team for bringing together such a thoughtful community. Looking forward to the conversations ahead!

Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe in new interview:
"Later this year, we'll have full supervised point-to-point, which will be very similar to @Tesla's FSD. That will roll out to all of our Gen 2 vehicles and, of course, R2. Next year, we'll allow it to go unsupervised, so you can take your eyes off the road. The next step is achieving full capability for the vehicle to drive itself with no one in the car. We've been developing that for a while for our personal vehicles, but we also see it unlocking new business models, robotaxi being one of them.
We took the decision to parter with Uber so we could focus on the tech and leverage them for their access to a big distribution channel. They're really a category of one. There's no one quite at their scale or reach."

Love the discussion on Hakeem Olajuwon in here and how he’s been overlooked. That’s one of the reasons I wrote my recent book on DREAM: amazon.com/Dream-Life-Legacy…
