⁠⁠2 CEOs vs 2 Gen Zs | The Bridge S1E2: Is Personal Branding Really Necessary?

Shantanu bhai just one thing to share the new show is amazing and i have got a lot of insights on personal branding. furthermore, how a young individual can do the same.

Just a thing i noticed about your beard your barber has not done a great job. it's different on both side.😅 so, for the next time please take care of the same.
PS: Just wanted to know are you recruiting rn?🤔

Great piece of content to watch.
Just wanted to give out a observation, at many instances throughout the video, it felt like now this is an interesting point, I would want to hear more about it, and then the very next moment is a cut. Would have liked it to be a full length video like BWS. It would be great to have Chandan on THE BRIDGE . I have been following him for a while now, almost a perfect fit for this pod. Anyways there must be a thought & explanation behind it from you guys. Not missing a single piece coming out of this channel.❤❤

Revant had some really valid points. Not sure what value add the Ogilvy lady brought in though, too many words too few points

Amazing 🔥.

Worth watch.


Have faced what Avani is talking about companies discouraging or looking down on people active on LinkedIn.

Revant sir always has such great points, whether on Asymmetric podcast or here. Gautami was good too. I should start learning storytelling.

Are they Really genZ?

I want to be part of podcast what can i do shanthanu bro?

Let's accept that Revant has better understanding and is quite knowledgeable.

WE NEED MORE OF THESE CONVERSATIONS!!!

great closing

What if we can channel the effort we put into building a personal brand into building personal connections—having 100 friends instead of 100,000 followers?

How to be the genz in these podcasts

Amazing ! Proud of you Avani ❤

This was a stupid panel

In my first company the linkedin cover page was shared to us by our employer and we all were told to change it to that. I was working back as a recruiter in a recruitment agency!

I have worked in a large MNC bank, and Linkedin posting was blocked for everyone. It was only avaliable for people who had sales navigator.
The 'Linkedin Personal Brand' nautanki is only valid for startups, founders and marketers.

One Advice to all Personal Brand influencers & wannabes "Bolbacchan without actual substance... gets exposed faster than you think"

I think personal branding is getting outdated now. Because now everyone is doing personal branding.

Who else thinks Shantanu is just hyped up but nothing as such relevant?

Mujhe agencies chahiye

You now understand how successful and profitable a company founder is basis on how many bloody ads they run on their educational/informative podcast videos. 9 Ads on a 30 minute video???? Cmon bro

Great discussion. Shows there's still no one way, one should keep trying & doing things, figure things out.

I don't believe in personal branding. A bunch of coaches are making money in the name of personal branding.

Who are these people? There should be an introduction

Nikhil Kamath said it on podcast that he is hardly busy for 90mins on a given day. His biz is on auto-pilot. Is he a benchmark?

Loved this discussion. My take: personal branding is necessary today — but only if it’s authentic and aligned with what you truly do and value. Opportunities flow to visible and trusted people. But it goes wrong when it becomes performative or replaces real relationships. The best brands are a byproduct of serving your community, solving problems, and showing up consistently. And social media can be a great tool for that — if used to genuinely explore ideas and elevate others. Really enjoyed the perspectives in this episode!

Dude, this should've been at least 2 hours long, such an interesting conversation really. I hope you take us long-form listeners into consideration, cheers!

Great discussion. This fascination for ‘personal brand’ is worrying. I’ve met around 6 influencers and they were all lonely people and insecure. Is this the downside of over-focussing on personal branding?

It's a wonderful discussion... Hoping to see more of this content with a bit longer discussions. Congratulations Barbershop team!!

Mr. Revant Bhate made a lot of sense about highlighting the thin line between indexing on followers and still being authentic - Thank You team Barbershop 💐

Loved to listen to you Gautami❤

This was a good discussion because it had good insights with nuances across both sides and great share of voice across people.

The telling discussion at the end " Why does Nikhil Kamath feel a need to do a podcast. Surely not for business then what is he seeking " . Great discussion !

Bakwsss karo bass aur ky 😂😂😂
