Imec’s Founders Circle event brings together the innovative and creative minds behind the creation of these start-ups. The previous edition of Founders Circle took place on November 24th at the StartupVillage (Antwerp).
With a focus on leadership awareness, the event was led by Steffi Van Ranst from TICkA, who started by challenging attendees to reflect on their relation with co-workers:
- Do they listen to their concerns?
- Are they open to receive feedback?
- Do they take the time to recognize employees for their work and progress?
The session went on to show the importance of certain values for a healthy work environment and employee satisfaction, such as cooperation, safety and trust, and how it’s a leader’s job – as a coach and mentor – to foster those in the company.
As an entrepreneur, leadership skills are crucial to inspire and motivate your co-workers to achieve their full potential and work together towards the success of your business.
The event ended with an informal networking drink, accompanied by drinks and appetizers.
