Recommends Never Split The Difference.

25 Jun 2023 Lenny's Podcast Lessons from scaling Ramp | Sri Batchu (Ramp, Instacart, Opendoor)

It's a negotiation book, find it super helpful for negotiation, but also for a lot of business decision making generally, to be honest, and life. And then I'm a big fan of sci-fi short stories, so anything by Ted Chiang or Ken Liu, I highly recommend.”

Is there one thing that you've taken away from that book that stuck with you of like I use this?…
