Anjali Sud on Rejection, Impatience, and Success on her Own Terms

Anjali Sud is the CEO of Tubi, the free streaming platform that houses the world’s largest library of movies and TV series. Since she’s taken the helm last year, the platform has hit a record number of viewers. But Tubi is far from Anjali’s first rodeo as far as CEO tenures go. 


She first stepped into the coveted role several years ago at Vimeo when she was just 33 years old, and successfully transformed the business: turning it from a video streaming site into a software company. But it was definitely not a smooth ride to the top. Anjali shares it all on this week’s episode, including:

• her upbringing in Flint, Michigan and how it’s shaped her view of business.
• getting turned down by nearly every investment banking job she applied to.
• finding power in being impatient and vulnerable.
• debunking myths about becoming a CEO (twice!), and being a working mother.
