Here is a great talk by Tom Conrad of Pandora about how the site became the most popular online radio station.

“After nearly two decades in the trenches of Pets.com, Apple Computer, and the You Don’t Know Jack game series at Berkeley Systems, Tom Conrad (Pandora CTO) shares his acquired wisdom on succeeding in the consumer internet space. He discusses agility, crisp decision making, and focus, and peppers his lessons with numerous entertaining anecdotes of dot-com days and corporate progress.”

In this video Tom walks through 3 of the key lessons he learned through his career. For a man who’s never founded a company, he’s treated his leadership roles in the companies he’s worked for as an entrepreneur.

I was inspired by this talk a few months ago while biking the sea wall around Stanley Park. You can find this talk in MP3 format at ecorner.stanford.edu 

Enjoy!
