Braving the Winter, Conquering the Fear, Managing the Reality

This week, we shall continue with the second part of Chinaccelerator 8X8 Speakers Series with Lu Guo, Founder and CEO, USHOPAL, Jane Lin-Baden, Managing Partner of APAC, Publicis Group and Yintao Feng, Founder of MIXPACE.What does it take to be a capable CEO? Lu recalled how she had to raise a few hundred million RMB within a period of 12 months during her coldest winter. Despite all those setbacks, she managed to get the results done and keep the company afloat. Fear of pressure, fear of being unnoticed and fear of falling. Aside from the fear, Jane also revealed to us the secret of flying high above the crowd and bringing out the best quality of yourself even when no one is watching at all. Yintao walked us through the time when he experienced a culture shock after returning back to China. Sharing his transition from corporate to startup, we can get to learn how he adapted to this new environment and what were his techniques in managing and working with people. Show Notes:[01:50] Lu Guo’s talk (No slides)[10:01] Jane Lin-Baden’s talk - Jane’s presentation slide: https://www.jianguoyun.com/p/DdBZIIsQrai4Bxigr7EB[19:22] Yintao Feng’s Talk - Yintao’s presentation slide: https://www.jianguoyun.com/p/DdTJ8uEQrai4Bxikr7EB Many thanks to our speakers Lu Guo, Jane Lin-Baden and Yintao Feng, editor David and Geep, producer Eva Shi, organizer Chinaccelerator and sponsor People Squared.
