The last sentence says it all... In entrepreneur-land (and university leadership) - inability to sell is the kiss of death. "It’s not enough to be smart and competent — the boss also has to know how to sell." amp-cnn-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/amp.cnn.co…

Learning math teaches you to think in abstraction... If you can learn to think in abstraction, then you have the skill to see problems and solutions that others don't/can't see, and that's a competitive advantage.... Especially in entrepreneur-land.

Gr8 program to end our 2023 @smucox southwest venture forum the fireside chat with entrepreneur and venture investor Chris Hanson from Grant Park Ventures Austin really kept the audience engaged. Thx jen oneal for moderating. #smucoxswvf
