SUMMARY:Virtual Lunch & Learn: The Scientist-CEO Communication Trap: Why Brilliant Founders Create the Exact Problem That Stalls
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Virtual Lunch & Learn presented by Dr. Yoanne Clovis as she explores how PhD and MD founders can adapt their communication approach as their companies grow.\n\nAs the scientist who discovered and developed your product\, you are the best person in the company to explain the science to other experts in your field. You can close the first round and convince the first hires\, usually also scientists. But scientists often fall into the expert trap\, when your deep expertise prevents them from connecting with non-experts\, like angel investors and non-scientist executives who could become your next hire or your next partner. What made you credible in the lab becomes a liability as the team grows.\n\nThis session looks at the specific pattern PhD and MD founders fall into somewhere between fifteen people and sixty: the founder keeps leaning on the science and insists on leading the communications alone\, long after the company has outgrown that approach. Dr. Clovis will walk through when things tend to change structurally\, why “I’ll handle it myself” stops working\, and what early-stage and pre-Phase II leaders can put in place now to maintain scientific integrity while growing the company.\nTags: lunchandlearn\, biotech\, oregon\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250482687
