FounderFuel LIVE: with communications expert Ed Staite
You’re invited to FounderFuel LIVE where we’ll be in conversation with communications expert Ed Staite, asking ‘Are we communicating clearly as founders’?

In this session, we’ll explore:
the biggest communication mistakes that occur without us even knowing as founders,
why we get so frustrated when people around us don’t ‘keep up’
and how to context switch your communication to accelerate your communication impact.
Peppered with examples and takeaway tools throughout, you’re guaranteed to leave with tips and tricks to better influence those around you.
