Re:Ask HN: Founders who sold their company, what do you do? on Wednesday January 10, 2018 @04:39AM (#16113655)
Can you explain a little about how your experience at McKinsey has allowed you to have a greater impact? Why did you go back to VP Engineering after having consulting experience? At first though, I would think your technology experience would give you leverage on the business side rather than the other way around.
Although, I agree with you in principle. In reality it is a little different. Just because you don't take your phone out doesn't mean other people aren't. Its the same principle as Facebook being able to figure out who your relatives are even though you may not be on Facebook. Its all about data points. With enough data points, it doesn't matter whether you bring out a phone or not.
