The Greatest Venture Deal of All Time: Figma or Slack: What is Mamoon's highest returning deal? What did Mamoon see in Dylan and Figma when they had no revenue and very little user data? What compelled Mamoon to write Stewart the check with Slack? What did he not see with Slack that he should have seen? 2. Taking Control of the Great Brand in Venture: Kleiner Perkins: Is it true that Kleiner approached Mamoon and gave him the keys to the Kleiner kingdom? How did it go down? Will Kleiner go back to having multiple products, large growth funds, international funds? What does Mamoon want Kleiner to be in 5 years? What was the hardest element of the transition into Kleiner? What did Mamoon not know that he wishes he had known? 3. Becoming a Generational Defining Investor: Market, founder, product, how does Mamoon rank them 1-3? How has Mamoon changed most significantly as an investor? What does he know now that he wishes he had known when he became a VC 19 years ago? What is his biggest loss? How did it shape his mindset and go forward investing approach? 4. AI Supercycle: The Greatest Time to Invest Where does Mamoon believe the value will accrue in this wave of AI? Where are many investors spending a lot of time but Mamoon believes is not worthy of that time?  Will scaling laws continue? Have we ever seen an incumbent set spend like this incumbent class? How does that change the game for VCs?

Guests: Parker Conrad, CEO of Rippling, and Mamoon Hamid, partner at Kleiner PerkinsHow long did it take for Parker Conrad to stop wanting revenge? “I'll let you know when it switches over,” the Rippling CEO and co-founder jokes. He resigned from his last company, the buzzy HR unicorn Zenefits, in 2016 and then quickly realized that the company's new leaders would never return it to its former glory. He still loved the problems he had been trying to solve, and launched Rippling because “there was an opportunity there, [and] if it works ... it's going to be fundamentally and foundationally better as a product.” It worked. As of March, Rippling has been valued at more than $11 billion, more than double Zenefits' peak.In this episode, Parker, Mamoon, and Joubin discuss what happened at Zenefits, avoiding press coverage, FOMO and expectations, Paul Graham, fixing corporate insurance, Ryan Peterson's “revenge portfolio,” CEO coaches, Mike Vernal, approving expenses, anecdata, and the Costco of SaaS. In this episode, we cover: How Parker and Mamoon met (00:56) The Zenefits Series B (06:29)  “Stuck in a nightmare” (09:20)  Entrepreneurship is “soul-destroying” (12:46)  Parker's first company, SigFig (17:17)  Starting a company for the right reasons (21:02)  Starting over after Zenefits (27:06)  Avenging Zenefits (31:57)  Rippling's unusual Series A (38:40)  What it does well (43:13)  “Go and see” (46:35)  The compound startup (51:44) Who Rippling is hiring and what “grit” means to Parker (01:00:39)  Links: Connect with Parker Twitter LinkedIn Connect with Joubin Twitter LinkedIn Email: grit@kleinerperkins.com  Learn more about Kleiner Perkins This episode was edited by Eric Johnson from LightningPod.fm

Guest: Aaron Levie, CEO of Box, and Mamoon Hamid, partner at Kleiner PerkinsWhen he was a newly minted venture capitalist at USVP, Mamoon Hamid got a tip that he should meet a young entrepreneur named Aaron Levie, and fought for the right to invest in his cloud storage startup, Box. For years after that initial investment, the two men say, Box's fate was precarious: “We could have died any day,” Mamoon says, and Aaron recalled several times he had to be talked “down from a ledge.” Today, they tell us how Box established itself as “open for business” — a concept Mamoon hounded Aaron with in the early years — and grew into success.In this episode, Aaron, Mamoon, and Joubin discuss Box socks, authenticity at work, Josh Stein, living in the office, over-diligence, Google Platypus, the 2008 crash, nostalgia, everything is personal, the ten-person test, burnout, Dan Levin, ChatGPT, Parker Conrad, and Silicon Valley as “technology town.” In this episode, we cover: “Make mom proud, unless she's evil” (01:59) How Mamoon and Aaron met (04:38) Mamoon's first investment in Box (11:15)  Pausing the term sheet (16:08) “We could have died any day” (19:01) What is company-building?

Understanding Spirituality with Mamoon Yusaf How many times have you heard people tagging themselves as spiritual and not religious? Not once, right? People tend to think they are spiritual, but the truth is, they are yet to get to that level. Some practice traditions of different religions. In this episode, Mamoon Yusaf will teach us how we can take our spirituality a notch higher and start enjoying the ease that comes with it. Mamoon and I will have in-depth conversations on the differences between ego-based entrepreneurship and spiritual-based entrepreneurship. We will also dig into other amazing topics that pertain to spirituality. Listen in to learn more. Who is Mamoon Yusaf Mamoon is a spiritual coach. He is best-selling author of Inside the Soul of Islam. He focuses on the Muslim or Sufi spiritual path as a spiritual coach. He also does spiritual teachings that are universal and open to everyone. Is there spirituality in religion? Spirituality has no labels, yet nowadays, different religions have different labels. Most religions fail to focus on the present moment and forget that God is ever-present. Why doesn't Mamoon use the term universe? Mamoon believes that everything that exists within time has a beginning. The universe exists within time. It, therefore, has a beginning. Everything that has a beginning has a cause outside of itself, and since the universe exists within time. The universe has a beginning. The universe, we can therefore conclude, has a cause outside of itself. Mamoon also believes God is the supreme Being. Timestamps: [01:31] Getting to know Mamoon [02:36] Ego-based entrepreneurship versus spiritual-based entrepreneurship [23:22] Do we have spirituality in religion? [35:40] The universe doesn't have your back [36:45] Why Mamoon doesn't use the term universe [42:43] The power of living in the present moment Quotes: “Happiness comes from thought. It also comes at the speed of thought.” “Like mosquito repellent spray, there is a client repellent spray and it's called neediness and insecurity.” “Spiritual reality doesn't have any labels.” “Whatever you think, that's what your reality is going to look like.” “Every world, religion, and the spiritual tradition in the world brings something powerful.” “Everything that exists within time has a beginning.” “Anytime we believe something has the power to cause our feelings, we do get nervous. We start imagining and overthinking about that thing.” Connect with Mamoon Yusaf: Website: https://mamoonyusaf.com/ Podcast: https://mamoonyusaf.com/podcasts/ If you enjoy the content that we're bringing to you, then please feel free to drop us a review on the platform you're listening to us through. :)
