About this listen

This week, we got the scoop from Melissa Kargiannakis, an executive coach to world-class founders and former founder herself, on how to build effective remote teams in less than 4 hours of meetings per week. In this episode, she shared insights for founders on building a remote team, creating company values, leading by example, and creating a candidate-centered hiring process.

In this episode, we chat about:

  • Intentionally building remote teams by setting expectations, building personal connections, and ensuring transparency to enable autonomy
  • How to develop company values where the founder & CEO is a participant, not a facilitator
  • Tips for founders on on building resilience and surrounding yourself with people who balance out your weaknesses
  • Emphasis on the value of niceness and empathy in leadership

In addition to coaching founders, Melissa is currently the Head of Business Operations at Cloudfare and was formerly founder and CEO of Skritswap. Read about how she builds remote teams here.
