Create Group Leadership Forum / Panel in November? #8

Closed bsteinbe closed 9 years ago

bsteinbe commented 10 years ago

As part of my leadership curriculum I would like to have a larger leadership forum in November and invite several companies and leaders to discuss leadership in emerging companies. Let me know if anyone is interested in partnering.

:raised_hand: yes please!

bsteinbe commented 10 years ago

awesome. Let's talk about how we get this going! Who do we want on the panel??

CrisBarrett commented 10 years ago

Hi ... I/we (Axcient) would definitely be interested in participating. Lots of rich potential discussion topics. A few of the themes I have been thinking of -- 1) Career management in emerging companies, 2) How to think/act like a big company (process has a place even though it's a bad word) and still be a small company (culturally), 3) what the perfect VC/BoD/Exec Team partnership looks like, etc.

I also think scaling is an important topic

demoncorp commented 10 years ago

I'd be happy to speak if you need more folks - I have experience with both cofounding a company that got Series A and two Series B rounds (BandPage) as well a a totally bootstrapped company that I'm running now (MidBoss)! :)

Matt Conn CEO, Midboss

I'd be happy to participate. All are good issues.

bsteinbe commented 10 years ago

I would like to ask Amy Errett, CEO of Madison Reed, Tod Sacerdoti, CEO of Brightroll / Bruce Falck COO of BrightRoll (my Company), maybe Lars Dalgaard formerly SuccessFactors now at Andreessen Horowitz

It would be great to get a date on the calendar so we can lock it down.

dhanrahan commented 10 years ago

Howdy! I could see if Jen Dulski is interested (COO, Change.org) and available, once we know the date.

bsteinbe commented 10 years ago

I would love to nail down a date. I am not sure if we want to have a late afternoon then cocktail hour or do something during lunch? Right now, November 6 or 7 or November 10 or 11 would be great.

Let's lock down a date!

kellidrag commented 10 years ago

Perfect, lets do it. Love the idea of late PM then cocktail hour :cocktail:

Any of the Nov dates above would work...then we can talk details? (agenda, participants, topics, etc?)

cc @lizclink as we totally want to start doing similar things at GitHub monthly and open it up to companies and their employees...details here in this issue:
