I've pitched to investors that never responded.
I've applied to hashtag#MBA schools that never shared any feedback post a ding.
I am someone who has gotten way more "silences" than "hell yes" when I applied.
But I have had my fair bit of success too.
If you are stuck trying and getting rejected, know that:
In 2020, I got my critical yes from Rajat Gupta (former global CEO Of McKinsey & Company) for teaching management consulting at our GGI.
This came after multiple NOs.
Post that, many more global hashtag#CEOs gracefully agreed to teach business to our students.
Today, I often find emails from interested and kind investors in my inbox.
You don't need 100 yes to crack your hashtag#career code.
All you have to sit tight for that is that one magical yes.
Until then, you don't give up.
You keep your fight on ✊
