Check this out, really good read.

Homeboy makes a case (citing an article from Stinky, Old, Nutty Rupert’s WSJ) that VC firms need to promote new ideas within their organizations via “entrepreneur-in-residence” programs for young talent, and also makes a point that issues currently plaguing the VC market aren’t on a firm-level, but on an industry level. Basically meaning that the whole ringamarole needs to be uprooted and replanted. Word…

This applies to all industries when speaking about the future of American business. Now more than ever we need youth properly represented at the decision making table, we need to grab the reigns and take control of our future.

Most young people don’t give a shit. I know that. You know that. We all do. But people don’t give a shit in general, on a macro level, so don’t shut us out like lepers because there are a lot of motivated young people who are very pissed off at our current economic and political climate and are looking to inspire change and save this country from making the same mistakes its been regurgitating for the last 100 years.

We need to cycle young people into decision-making processes on a regular basis. Hopefully the upcoming election is a death knell for the old regime: the thought process that stamps the tag of “rationality” on some old, creepy, out-of-touch white dude running shit on any level.
