Episode 13 - Hackathons

About this episode

The episode discusses the benefits of Hackathons for organizations, including insights from guest Stephen Knox.

We are joined by our colleague, Stephen Knox, to chat about Hackathons. You may think these are something for coders, engineers, or other deeply technical people. However, senior level managers and executives can benefit from them. And in this episode, we go over the value that a Hackathon can provide to your organization, what they’re about, and how to go about getting one set up. You can find Stephen on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephen-knox-148a801/ As always, let us know if you have ideas for future episodes, and what you’d like to hear us talk about!
