Building and motivating your team – LOB 004



You’re planning that new startup. How do you build a strong management team? How do you measure their success? How do you convince investors that you have the right idea and the right people?

In this episode of The Language of Business, host Greg Stoller talks with John Murphy, Venture Capitalist at Point Judith Capital about what investors are looking for in a management team: an A-rated management team with a B-rated venture, not an A-rated venture with a B-rated management team. Plus, we’ll get insights from Allesandra DeVaca, Chief Administrative Officer at Hebrew Senior Life about how to motivate employees from the C level to support staff, and Matthew Bellows, CEO of Yesware an IT specialist with software that can help your sales team make more money.
