  • Finding Your Edge (with Laura Huang)
    Sep 5 2024

    If you’re a founder, or a leader, or aspiring to be either, you know in your bones that building a business is nothing but a boatload of hard work, more hard work, and then more hard work after that. Of course you need to do other things to succeed, especially as a woman. You have to overprepare. Be the smartest person in the room. Exude persistence, tenaciousness, relentlessness. But if you’ve got all that going on, conventional wisdom tells us that if you put in the labor, you’ll reap the rewards. But what if hard work alone isn’t enough? Laurie and her guest Dr. Laura Huang, a distinguished professor of entrepreneurship and innovation at Northeastern University, discuss Laura’s recent book, Edge: Turning Adversity into Advantage. Because hard work alone may not get you to success. But finding your unique edge, in any situation, will.

  • Team and Talent (with Julie Yoo)
    Aug 22 2024

    Meet Julie Yoo, investor and general partner with the famous firm Andreessen Horowitz (aka a16z). She’s an incredibly successful leader in her own right, but she also understands the essential role team and talent play in building a winning business. Julie’s a former founder herself, so the advice she gives to leaders is informed by having been on both sides of the equation: a founder seeking funding, and an investor vetting teams to ensure fit – and impact. On today’s show, Laurie and Julie dig deep into how you can create, attract, and leverage the right team for your enterprise.
