What startups can learn from leadership ...

DUBAI EYE 103.8
About this episode

18 May 2021. We discuss all things leadership. What skills do you need to lead a team, whether you’re a small operation with a few people or a larger business? Is leadership training something that startups need, or is it best left to the big corporates? The Executive Director of Sustain Leadership Hanane Benkhallouk gives her advice for startups and SMEs. Meanwhile, Monish Chandiramani, the co-founder of the latest e-grocery app, Yeepeey, discusses starting the new business, plus how much time he puts into the company.
