Relationship FU Plan: Saba Karim

[jaahmuhl]

User Story / Problem / Details The Content Editor is in charge of ensuring the initial relationship we foster with an interviewee does not decay over time for interviewees that we designate as important. As a result we want to follow a process that allows us to interact and build a relationship with the interviewee over time. The final step of the process should be focused on how connect with an interviewee over multiple interactions and over the course of a year.

Hi Saba, we wanted to reach out and thank you again for participating in our Executive Interview Series.

During our discussion, we had the privilege of hearing about how you found your career path, the process of discovering what you do and do not like during your first job, helping others succeed by giving first, and the importance of building joyful friendships with others when building relationships. Both the Promazo team and our student audience will be excited to learn from you and your experiences.

Attached is a short clip from the interview that we found particularly interesting. The points you highlighted regarding the lessons founders learn through failure and their ability to bounce back will provide our students with meaningful insight.

Any contacts for these individuals, or other recommendations you may have, would benefit our project immensely.

Also, if you have any time in the future, we would be thrilled to have you on for a second interview, as your input and advice has been greatly appreciated. A discussion which dives further into your personal journey and visions on the industry’s future would be meaningful to our students.

Again, we thank you for your time and conversation. We look forward to building a closer relationship with you.
