Christian Underwood in conversation with Johannes Hoyos, co-founder of The Workation Village and scale-up coach.
In this episode, we talk to Johannes Hoyos about the fine art of scalable startup growth, as well as how a beautiful environment affects business performance and how to convey security in situations of great change.
Startups in growth find themselves in a massive pressure situation. Often, young people find themselves in a structure that offers little security. There are no clear roles, hardly any communication rhythms and many strategic uncertainties. At the same time, the Corona pandemic makes collaboration difficult, as a good sense of community is hampered by remote communication. Johannes helps startups scale responsibly and recently founded Workation Village in northern Italy. This is because he believes that when people come together in nature and spend precious moments together, not only will the team feeling be strengthened, but the quality of decisions will also increase in a sustainable way.
How Workation can make our economic system more sustainable, why shared values are important for a start-up and how to translate intuitive approaches into a structure, he tells us in the new episode HIKS "Scale me up".
