BUSINESS: Building a healthy company culture w/ Zenbusiness founder partner Ross Buhrdorf
This episode brings us together with Ross Buhrdorf from Zenbusiness, a startup that makes it simple, easy and accessible for everyone to start and run a small business. Ross, who is known for his ability in building teams and executing in a healthy company culture, is the former CTO of HomeAway, a home rental competitor to Airbnb that sold to Expedia for $3.9 billion in 2016.
It was excited to have Ross on the show and get an insight into how a more seasoned entrepreneur is approaching the challenges one faces as a startup. We also talk about one of my favorite topics which is the building a company culture, as well as one of the challenges Zenbusiness had to face early on. I’m super excited to now share this conversation with all of you today. Enjoy!
