The guest this episode is Laura Huang, Professor of Management and Organizational Dynamics, Distinguished Professor, and Faculty Director of the Women’s Entrepreneurship Initiative at Northeastern University.
Getting funding is one of the most important goals for a new organization, but funding decisions are not always driven by objective measures.
In this episode, we talk about how subtle individual differences can lead to inequities in new venture funding. In a recent paper in AMJ, Laura and her co-authors investigate how gender differences in communication impact investor perceptions during the "pitch meeting". We discuss the takeaways from this study and the larger role that academics should play in trying to develop solutions. Finally, Laura also shares some great insights about how everyone can turn their adversity into an EDGE.
