Welcome to an interview with the author of Crossing the Desert: The Power of Embracing Life's Difficult Journeys, Payam Zamani.    In this episode, Payam shares the most important lessons he learned from building a record-breaking billion-dollar IPO called AutoWeb, and how it fell apart. He took those early lessons and created his current company, One Planet Group, with the “people-first” culture he wanted all along for AutoWeb. As a result, One Planet Group's success has allowed Payam to reacquire AutoWeb and bring it back to profitability.   In Payam's book, Crossing the Desert, readers take an intimate look at how the paths we choose, the values we embrace, and the systems we decide to participate in (or not) can make or break us, not only financially, but spiritually. Payam's story is a timely reminder that enduring and embracing life's most difficult journeys can lead us to a brighter future—not only for ourselves, but for the people around us, and even the world.   Payam Zamani is an entrepreneur, investor, and the founder of One Planet Group, a closely held private equity firm that owns a suite of online technology and media businesses.   Born in Iran, Zamani was forced to flee at the age of 16 due to his religious beliefs as a Baha'i. He was offered asylum in the United States in 1988, settling in the San Francisco Bay Area. Upon graduation from the University of California, Davis, he and his brother founded AutoWeb, one of the first online car marketplaces, which they took public in 1999.    Since then, he has built and currently owns multiple technology and media businesses, has invested in more than 50 companies, and is striving to redefine capitalism in an attempt to elevate business to serve humanity. He has been named the “Best CEO for Diversity,” is the recipient of Tahirih Justice Center's Hope Award, and received an Award of Distinction from UC Davis in 2018.

Welcome to Strategy Skills episode 460, featuring an interview with the author of Crossing the Desert: The Power of Embracing Life's Difficult Journeys, Payam Zamani.    In this episode, Payam shares the most important lessons he learned from building a record-breaking billion-dollar IPO called AutoWeb, and how it fell apart. He took those early lessons and created his current company, One Planet Group, with the “people-first” culture he wanted all along for AutoWeb. As a result, One Planet Group's success has allowed Payam to reacquire AutoWeb and bring it back to profitability.   In Payam's book, Crossing the Desert, readers take an intimate look at how the paths we choose, the values we embrace, and the systems we decide to participate in (or not) can make or break us, not only financially, but spiritually. Payam's story is a timely reminder that enduring and embracing life's most difficult journeys can lead us to a brighter future—not only for ourselves, but for the people around us, and even the world.   Payam Zamani is an entrepreneur, investor, and the founder of One Planet Group, a closely held private equity firm that owns a suite of online technology and media businesses.   Born in Iran, Zamani was forced to flee at the age of 16 due to his religious beliefs as a Baha'i. He was offered asylum in the United States in 1988, settling in the San Francisco Bay Area. Upon graduation from the University of California, Davis, he and his brother founded AutoWeb, one of the first online car marketplaces, which they took public in 1999.    Since then, he has built and currently owns multiple technology and media businesses, has invested in more than 50 companies, and is striving to redefine capitalism in an attempt to elevate business to serve humanity. He has been named the “Best CEO for Diversity,” is the recipient of Tahirih Justice Center's Hope Award, and received an Award of Distinction from UC Davis in 2018. Zamani and his wife, Gouya, have two daughters, Sophia and Ella.   Get Crossing the Desert here: https://rb.gy/pio8ht   Here are some free gifts for you: Overall Approach Used in Well-Managed Strategy Studies free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/OverallApproach   McKinsey & BCG winning resume free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/resumepdf   Enjoying this episode?

Books That Make You Feel That Anything Is Possible, Even When Things Seem Hopeless When he was just sixteen years old, Payam Zamani's parents paid smugglers to carry him safely across over a thousand miles of desert so he might escape brutal religious persecution in Iran. Not much later, he arrived as an adolescent refugee in America, equipped only with a dream. In just over a decade, he launched a record-breaking billion-dollar IPO, only for it to fall victim to the nineties' tech bubble, and Wall Street's subsequent meltdown. Twenty-three years later, he bought the company back, and, within just a few months, made it profitable once more. His new book, CROSSING THE DESERT: The Power of Embracing Life's Difficult Journeys chronicles Payam's story of going from oppression to opportunity, and from financial highs to lows—to highs once more.

Elisabetta Giromini"Centomila tulipani"Morellini Editorewww.morellinieditore.it«Mi sono già sposata una volta. In una moschea. Un matrimonio finto di quelli fatti per mentire. Non ero felice, neanche un sorriso. Ascoltavo il mullah dire parole che non conoscevo. Guardavo lui, il mio sposo, non capire una parola. Nemmeno lui sorrideva. Bastava pagare, tra il farsi e l'arabo passano secoli. Culture, guerre, religioni. Anche fra me e lui. Culture guerre religioni. Riti. Come quel matrimonio. L'amore dentro a un contratto. Com'è che ci siamo conosciuti? Arrivati a questo punto non me lo ricordo.» Daria è una giovane universitaria incerta sul suo futuro e in perenne conflitto con la madre, anche a causa dell'abbandono del padre quando era solo una bambina. L'archeologia le cambia la vita. Parte per una missione archeologi-ca a Persepoli e lì incontra Payam, con cui il rapporto è da subito intenso. Gli scontri in vista delle elezioni in Iran si inaspriscono e Daria è costretta a tornare in Italia, perdendo ogni traccia di lui. Il rientro è traumatico, Daria non riesce a trovare un equilibrio. Il tempo scorre lento tra relazioni fugaci. Le uniche costanze sono lo smarrimento esistenziale e il vuoto incolmabile dell'assenza di Payam. Quando dopo sei anni Daria torna in Iran lui è lì che la aspetta. Tranquillo, come se niente fosse cambiato. Ma tutto è cambiato. Non c'è più idillio, solo conflitti e divergenze.È possibile dimenticare il passato? Possono due culture così diverse fondersi in un'unione profonda? Centomila tulipani è un romanzo delicato e violento. La voce di Daria esprime l'atavicità e l'universalità della sofferenza umana. Ma affrontare e superare questo dolore è forse possibile.
