Daryl Hayott was interviewed by writer Gaby Dunn for her 100 Interviews blog.

“Sit down and make a list — A list of 100 types of people you know exist but have never encountered. It’s easier than you’d think. People surround themselves with the familiar for many reasons — comfort, complacency, fear.

A list of 100 people so unlike me that I could go my whole life and never even meet just one.

6 rules. 1 year. 100 interviews. The project begins October 1.”

She needed a black belt in karate as an interviewee.  Daryl and Gaby met through a mutual connection in New York City.  Daryl had just acquired a dog by a chance meeting with a gentleman from New York City.

The interview is interesting and gives a little more insight into the CEO’s life.
