Manage episode 444140040 series 3508844
I’m thrilled to welcome Kendra Koch, founder of Divergently, to our Investor Mindset series. Divergently supports late-diagnosed neurodivergent women, offering resources and community. Kendra shares key insights from her Silicon Valley startup experience on building strong relationships with funders, the power of transparency in storytelling, and staying resilient through rejection. We also dive into how she’s driving excitement for her mission and keeping her community engaged. Whether you're neurotypical or not, there's a lot to learn from Kendra’s approach to mission-driven work.
Topics:
- A better way to report back to funders in the impact and nonprofit space and why knowing your community is key
- The impact of having relentless optimism and belief in your mission and how to get comfortable with rejection
- The power of relentless optimism and belief in your mission—plus, how to get comfortable with hearing “no”
- How Kendra has created a storytelling process on social media that works for her and her audience that isn’t so personal but still creates engagement
