Ben talks about what makes companies and startup communities thrive and how to improve collaboration in these rapidly evolving, complex environments.
Key Takeaways
- A shared understanding of what the company growth objectives are is very important for team cohesion and excitement and understanding of how all team members can contribute to these goals
- Being agile is a mindset and only through experimentation and hypothesis testing can we know what the next steps would be
- Empathy is a cornerstone to building the relationship with your team and without that really strong relationship, collective creativity might be missed out on
- A good manager is one that realizes diversity to be an asset and builds upon that learning
