I’m John Mayhall, the one with hair. I’m currently the CRO at Maze. I’ve built and led sales and ops teams at LinkedIn, Yahoo!, and CyberGRX. While I love operating, my first passion was political cartooning, inspired by a course with legendary cartoonist, Chan Lowe. Like business frameworks, political cartoons take big, tricky subjects and make them simpler. They use visuals and wit to shape our perspective on the world. When not working or drawing, I’m watching Boston sports with my 3 kids, wife, and dog in Connecticut. I’m James Raybould, the bald one on the right. I’m currently a fractional exec at both Speak and WisdomAI. I’ve built and led product, marketing, and sales teams at LinkedIn, following time at Bain. I’m the guy who loved business school because I got to geek out reading 2-3 new cases every day. I love business frameworks and I love business writing, so Blueprints lets me combine these two passions. When not working or writing, I’m reading, watching films, or hanging out with my wife and 2 kiddos in the Bay Area.
