Building (and keeping) a Credible and Capable Team

Our very own Pete Rodriguez, CEO of Silicon Catalyst, and Henry Nurser, SiliconCatalyst.UK partner, give us the benefit of their experiences building multiple teams in the US (Pete) and the UK (Henry). In a pre-recorded video Pete gives his views on the keys to success in team building and some practical approaches to achieve a great team. Henry then follows up with some observations of his own with a more UK centric view including how to motivate and retain the team and how to build a UK board.
