#304 David Senra- Lessons Learned Reading 250+ Biographies of Great Founders

1h 35m · Published 12 Jun 04:01
David Senra is the creator of Founders Podcast (one of my FAVORITE podcasts!)  Learn from history's greatest entrepreneurs. Every week David reads a biography of an entrepreneur and find ideas you can use in your work. This quote explains why: "There are thousands of years of history in which lots and lots of very smart people worked very hard and ran all types of experiments on how to create new businesses, invent new technology, new ways to manage etc. They ran these experiments throughout their entire lives. At some point, somebody put these lessons down in a book. For very little money and a few hours of time, you can learn from someone’s accumulated experience. There is so much more to learn from the past than we often realize. You could productively spend your time reading experiences of great people who have come before and you learn every time." —Marc Andreessen

#303 Brunello Cucinelli - Building a Fashion Empire, My Life Story

34m · Published 05 Jun 04:01

Read the episode notes & full interview HERE

*I made an error in the audio/video introduction of Brunello. He is not the CEO of Brunello Cucinelli but the Founder & Creative Director.

Today I sit down with fashion icon, Brunello Cucinelli. Brunello is the founder of Brunello Cucinelli and is known as “The King of Cashmere” but he didn’t start out on top. Brunello Cucinelli was born into a peasant family in Italy in 1953 and in 1978 he set up a small company and captivated the market with his idea of dying cashmere. Since when he was a boy, he witnessed his father working in an environment that degraded him as a person and became a catalyst for developing his dream to promote a concept of work that ensured respect for the human being’s moral and economic dignity.

​In a world filled with company management trying to push their employees to the limit Brunello has a refreshing and proven method that is vastly different from what we’re used to.  Brunello Cucinelli, has striven to create an enterprise that follows principles of what he calls “humanistic capitalism." Human capitalism, according to Cucinelli, means pursuing growth and profitability in a “gracious way.” At the company, humanistic capitalism manifests itself in a very specific set of policies and behavioral norms. Workers are paid wages that exceed 20% of the market norms; the workday (even for senior executive) is limited to the hours of 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM; emails are not to be sent after hours or on weekends; lunch breaks are one and half hours long to allow workers to have lunch at home should they choose. There are also strong cultural norms emphasizing respect and dignity.

Brunello is the embodiment of a good soul who brings more beauty to this world and is constantly working to help humanity.
