Summary
Relationship is key in business. A good foundation to build that is through communication, specifically one that stems from authenticity. Being transparent to the people around you and working towards the same goals with passion keeps you connected with them and helps realize business goals. However, not most of us are great at this. We still find it hard to communicate our thoughts well, even more so on a regular basis. Olof Mathé, founder and CEO of Mixmax, shares how he mastered the art of mixing technology and relationships together. Olof talks about his own journey, beginning from when he started up until the great things he is doing now. He shares some great advice on funding, appreciating investors, and more. Love the show?
