Patrick Brown, founder and CEO of Unity Communications, joins Jim Barnish on this episode to discuss building teams and the people behind them. He shares his own journey of leaving the corporate job and the ‘dirt’ he’s gathered while growing his company from just himself to 300+ people.
How do you find the right talent to hire in a young startup when you don’t have the cash or benefits to compete with the big guys? What do you do when a great employee finds an opportunity elsewhere? How do you empower your team to make decisions and grow with you?
Join Patrick and Jim as they deep dive into creating successful teams, the costly mistakes he has made in building websites and hiring outside consultants, and why profit margin is the number one metric he is focused on.
