Having a career coaching practice in the Silicon Valley has its demands! Although I have clients in 23 countries, it is only some (about 10%) from the Silicon Valley who engage me have the desire to either start their own venture or to join one.

Hobnobbing with Corporate Major-Domos!

By Dilip Saraf on 01 Apr 2014
