[Level Up With Gen AI Series] We believe in harnessing the power of AI to unlock human potential.
We unpack Bill Gurley’s legendary talk “Running Down a Dream”—a no-fluff, high-octane blueprint for building a career that truly lights you up. Through vivid stories of Bobby Knight, Bob Dylan, and Danny Meyer, Gurley reveals five timeless principles that separate the dreamers from the doers:
Find your real passion (not your LinkedIn-approved one)
Hone your craft with obsessive depth
Seek out mentors—and earn their investment
Embrace your peers as collaborators, not competitors
Give credit, pay it forward, stay human
This isn’t just career advice. It’s a philosophy for a life well-lived.
Whether you’re mid-pivot, just starting out, or simply stuck—this episode is your spark. The dream won’t run to you. So let’s run it down.
