Startup AficionadoCritics and CriticismNowadays it seems common practice for the the so called experienced folks to criticize younger (read inexperienced) minds who come up with new ideas and businesses.. They term them ‘upstarts’, ‘noobs’, ‘bandwagon riders’, ‘flashes in the pan’, ‘dreamers’, and what not..
These critics have exposure in established / streamlined organizations with pretty fat paychecks, with limited accountability.
..and something I read somewhere comes to mind – Startups have their own problems, and people with experience in established organizations wouldn’t understand these problems, and they need to unlearn and relearn things.
