The Search for Leadership: Hiring Startup Execs
Join us in conversation with Laura Thompson, currently the founder and director of Execs on Deck, a curated community for top startup leaders looking to accelerate their careers.
Laura was previously an early product lead at GoogleX where she worked on science fiction-sounding technologies like self-driving cars, smart contact lenses and delivery drones. Laura's an angel investor and advisor to a number of mission-driven startups in the edtech, fintech, and pet spaces.
A personal finance nerd, Laura has been leading workshops for 10+ years to help women and young professionals build wealth while pursuing careers and lives they love. Laura splits her time between San Francisco and Puerto Rico and is an enthusiastic but thoroughly mediocre surfer.
