Banksy Art and Its Lessons on Leadership - Bijoy Goswami

In Chapter 5 of 15 in his 2011 Capture Your Flag interview with host Erik Michielsen, leadership philosopher Bijoy Goswami shares what graffiti artist Banksy has taught him about bootstrap entrepreneur culture, models, and structures. He compares how hacker artists such as Banksy use non-traditional structures to express themselves in ways similar to how bootstrap entrepreneurs do so building their companies. Goswami lives in Austin, TX, where he develops models, including MRE, youPlusU, and Bootstrap, to help others live more meaningfully. He teaches his models through community activism, lectures, writing, and online communication. Previously, he co-founded Aviri Software after working at Trilogy Software. Goswami graduated from Stanford University, where he studied Computer Science, Economics, and History.
