In today's episode, Ryan interviews Mathilde Collin, CEO of Front. Front is a
shared inbox for your team and the company is used by startups big and small.
They raised a whopping $66 million from Sequoia last year. Mathilde and Ryan
met at Y Combinator, when they were in the same YC batch in Summer 2014. It
was at that time that Ryan recognized something special about Mathilde and her
team: they build fast and embrace a very transparent culture, which has no
doubt led to their success. In this episode we talk about: Why it's important
as a founder to remain humble and be willing to do the dirty jobs yourself to
understand what it's like to do a job before you hire someone to do it for
you. Why, contrary to reports of its demise, email is not dead. How Mathilde
manages company culture at a fast-growing startup with offices in both San
Francisco and Paris. The products she uses to stay sane and productive. We’ll
be back next week so be sure to subscribe wherever you listen to your favorite
podcasts. Big thanks to FreshBooks, Spoka, Bubble, and Dipsea for their
