#21 - IS COMMUNICATION THE SECRET TO ISRAELI INNOVATION? ft CHEDVA KLEINHANDLER

Welcome back to Speak Like a CEO! On today's podcast we take you
to Israel, with an episode recorded straight from Tel Aviv. 


Our guest is Chedva Kleinhandler, the CEO and Founder of Emerj,
an app that connects employees and mentors. 


Chedva started her first business at 21. At that time she thought
she was the only person in the world who needed a mentor. After
her second business succeeded, more and more people sought her
advice. She realised: you can be an employee surrounded by people
with knowledge and still feel that you don't have access to that
knowledge. 


On today's episode, our guest tells us how she broke down the
barriers of making mentorship truly scalable within organisations
and easy in terms of people's commitment and time. In a time of
platform fatigue, she talks to us about how to create a safe and
confidential digital space for mentoring and how it can truly
enhance internal communications and become a powerful tool for
employer branding


Beyond mentorship, we talk about what makes Israeli
entrepreneurship and what role communications plays in this part
of the world. A true bridge builder between different cultures,
Chedva lets us in on the different types of communication styles
she has experienced and how religion and tech intersect in
Israel. Is communication the secret to Israeli innovation?
