197: Diversity Drives Better Communication. Stephanie von Behr, Founderland

Founderland is Europe’s fastest growing community of women
founders of colour. In this week's episode of Speak Like a CEO,
Oliver hosts Stephanie von Behr, Managing Director of
Founderland. 


Founderland is not your average community. Stephanie, together
with experienced founders Deborah Choi and Alina Bassi (our guest
in E94) have been highly intentional about building the brand,
deepening the community and making a real-life impact.


Stephanie urges everyone to branch out and to hire from different
segments, rather than just sticking to warm connections. One of
the reasons: diverse leadership teams tend to be better at
communications. 


Diverse teams are challenging because of cultural nuances you
need to consider, and demand a more vulnerable and self-aware
team. This improves culture, communications and the business at
large.
