Don't F*ck This Up, Season 2: Launch Party!
Join us for the launch of Don't F*ck This Up, Season 2!
Don't F*ck This Up is the podcast answering the ultimate question: ‘how the f*ck did you land that cool job?’.
Two decades of executive coaching and team building at the world's coolest brands have paved the way for Lauren Alvarez to host weekly conversations with creators, leaders and entrepreneurs and dig into what it takes to champion the road less traveled.
For the inaugural episode of Season 2, Lauren interviews Gatheround’s CEO and co-founder of Gatheround, Lisa Conn. They talk about creating and launching Gatheround, stepping into the role of CEO on Lisa’s first day back from maternity leave, and how to lead a fully remote team to work collaboratively and effectively. Join us to celebrate the kickoff of the new season, and for a live Q&A with Lisa and Lauren.
You can expect a discussion including:
The vital role of community plays in the journey of a founder
How to evolve as a leader in anticipation of what your team and company needs
Learning and adjusting to your power as a female leader
Live questions from you! Add questions you’d like us to ask Lisa here.
What to expect:
We’ll host this event on Gatheround, so you can expect 60 min of interactive breakout conversations and knowledge sharing.
Please come prepared to be on camera and mic for parts of this event.
See you there!
