Want to Understand America? Watch ‘Shark Tank.’
  + stars: | 2024-10-17 | by ( Jordyn Holman | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +19 min
“Shark Tank” Over the Years Season 1 (2009-10) The show premiered against the backdrop of the Great Recession. “‘Shark Tank’ is not a game show,” said Kevin O’Leary, a cutthroat investor known sarcastically in the tank as Mr. “Shark Tank” debuted less than a year after the subprime mortgage crisis devastated the global economy. But those kinds of companies are rarely reflected on “Shark Tank” for one simple reason: They don’t make for good TV. “The buyer gave us a shot at Target because of the ‘Shark Tank’ appearance.”“We turn you into a rock star and you become part of the ‘Shark Tank’ culture and the lore of ‘Shark Tank’,” said Mr. O’Leary.

Blueland CEO Sarah Paiji Yoo says she couldn't do her job without ditching a habit that hindered her first startup: trying too hard to get everything done. Paiji Yoo co-founded Blueland, which makes eco-friendly cleaning and personal care products, in 2019. That company, founded in 2011, was acquired in 2013 by PriceGrabber for an undisclosed sum — and in those two short years, Paiji Yoo found herself gravely overworked, she says. "With my first startup, I was spinning my wheels along," Paiji Yoo, 40, tells CNBC Make It. Limited money, employees, time and resources means there's more to get gone, says Paiji Yoo.

That's the exact kind of anti-collaborative person who Sarah Paiji Yoo tries to steer clear from when hiring new employees. And I think that is a must-have for every team member that we bring on," Paiji Yoo, the CEO and co-founder of eco-friendly cleaning product startup Blueland, tells CNBC Make It. "Folks who understand that a different set of inputs, a lot of times, lead to a better outcome." But the primary goal is simple: bringing people together to solve problems and learn something new," Gardner added. They know something different that I don't, and I can learn a lot from them.'"

The Supreme Court ruled Thursday that affirmative action policies at Harvard and the University of North Carolina that consider a student's race for college admissions are unconstitutional. The court's decision is not surprising but "disappointing" nonetheless, says Julian Taylor, a rising junior and member of the Affirmative Action Coalition at UNC Chapel Hill. The CEO and founder of the sustainability brand Blueland has been vocal about the importance of maintaining affirmative action policies at top colleges. Research has shown that the removal of affirmative action has led to declines in minority admissions at universities. Overturning 40-plus years of affirmative action in colleges
