Description:

Northwestern University's Querrey InQbation Lab is featuring the Q Founder Series, focused on key topics that early-stage startups face.

SEMINAR DESCRIPTION:

Bringing something new to the world, producing results and getting people to believe in an idea is really hard.  Yet, you’ve probably seen CEOs who somehow manage to disenchant or even repel the very people who they (most) need: customers, board members, employees, investors.  This seminar will uncover five CEO behaviors that put success at risk.
