Wayin's Scott McNealy On Making The Leap From Sun Microsystems Back Into Startups [TCTV]

scott mcnealyWhen it comes to high-flying superpowers of the tech industry, it doesn't get much bigger than Sun Microsystems back in its heyday, while it was under the leadership of co-founder and former CEO Scott McNealy. So you can imagine that it was a bit of a culture shock for McNealy when he dove back into the scrappy world of startups with the 2010 launch of his current company, the enterprise-focused social engagement platform Wayin.We had the opportunity to sit down with McNealy this week at South By Southwest in Austin, Texas for a segment with TechCrunch TV, and we talked a bit about how he made the transition from corporate giant to startup and the lessons he's learned along the way -- both the serious ones, and the more humorous ones.
