Management Principles, Eagles Fans, Drones & Planes
Happy Wednesday !
I hope you're having a great week. Here are some things I've been checking out over the past week - seems like this week ended up having an unintentional aviation theme.
Podcast: Rob Barbara - Build Ventures
Rob is a friend I know through sailing, but is also a VC in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Always entertaining, we talk about his management principles, how he's kept options open, and his thoughts on VC in Atlantic Canada.
Reading/Watching:
A drone saves 2 drowning boys in Australia
I can't stop laughing at this video of an Eagles fan attempting to catch the subway
Aerial Project "33K" - amazing film created by putting an 8K camera on the bottom of a Lear Jet
Book: Mistakes Were Made (But Not by Me) - Carol Tavris & Elliot Aronson
I've been reading more psychology lately, and this book explores self-justification and cognitive bias, and how they relate to politics, relationships, and more. Super fascinating, and immediately applicable to life. Will post notes soon.
Product: Mavic Air
DJI released a new drone this week called the Mavic Air. I haven't used it, but based on all that I've seen, it's the drone I'd now recommend for first-time buyers. Essentially a smaller Mavic Pro with the same camera, better sensors and tech, and cheaper.
Song: Flug & Fall - Ben Böhmer
My favourite addition to my working playlist this week.
Have a great week!
Graham
