In this author interview, Carrie Sun discusses working at one of the most prestigious hedge funds in the world, her widely acclaimed memoir Private Equity, and why “process over outcome” is bad advice.
Carri is real when she says that her mom is her greatest inspiration. No surprise, right? Carri is a writer. That’s an entrepreneurial vocation, isn’t it? Even when you get an advance for a book.
This interview reminded me that one of the more important work- or vocation-related questions is: are you drawn to creative vocations (i.e., those where you create something) or to operational roles?
another exceptional interview, Jana.
The kindest note! Thank you so much, Beth! All credit goes to Carrie, who brought to our exchange the same brilliance she brings to everything. 🌻
Great interview! 👏
