Name : Aditya raman

The video features the 12th employee of Zomato, an IIT and IIM alumnus, sharing the harsh realities
of working in a high-pressure startup environment and the lessons learned in sales and other critical
aspects of business. Despite holding prestigious academic credentials, the individual emphasizes how
these accolades held little value when it came to the practical challenges of building and scaling a
business.

Reality vs. Academic Achievements:


The speaker highlights that degrees like IIT or IIM may open doors, but they don’t guarantee success
in the real world, especially in sales or startup ecosystems.

Practical experience, grit, and the ability to adapt matter more than theoretical knowledge

Importance of Sales:
Learning sales is crucial, as it is the backbone of any business.

Convincing people, understanding customer needs, and closing deals are skills that no formal
education can fully prepare you for.

Sales taught resilience, empathy, and the ability to handle rejection

Lessons in Adaptability:
Success is not about relying on one’s degree but about constantly learning, improving, and adding
value.

The speaker stresses the need to be open to failure and to use it as a stepping stone for growth.

Broader Message:
The narrative serves as inspiration for young professionals, encouraging them to prioritize learning
practical skills, particularly sales, and to focus on making an impact rather than relying
solely on credentials

This summary captures the essence of the speaker’s message: academic success doesn’t define you
in the real world, but adaptability, resilience, and practical skills do. Let me know if you'd like it
