When Silicon Valley-based CTO advisor Suhail Syed tells his dear mother back in India about his work helping companies grow business revenue through using products in the cloud, she looks up to the sky. "She's wondering what’s there," Suhail recalls. This sweet story reminds us of the need to clarify any jargon we use and stay audience centered, too. It’s one of many topics we cover in this week’s Sage Sayers episode.
Join us on a wander through Suhail’s early arrival here in the states from India ("wet behind the ears") as a younger man and finding his way amidst cultural confusion, new beginnings, and a grit that comes when you’re determined to make things on your own. (He found solace through his own ambitions and his Muslim faith.) We share our disdain for jargon and offer some nice alternatives to the popular ones we hear around us.
