Summary: To celebrate International Women’s Day, we’re releasing a series of episodes this week – conversations with women at the helm of businesses or initiatives that support and further the lives of women. Today, we’re talking to Anna Auerbach, co-CEO of Werk, the first job marketplace where women can apply to roles at companies like Buffer, HBO and Wayfair with flexibility as part of the job description. They believe that work just isn’t working. The structure of work is a relic of the past. People aren’t one size fits all, so our jobs shouldn’t be either. The business pre-negotiates flexibility for you so there’s no uncertainty, not awkward conversations. Flexibility is pre-built into the role from the beginning. Here, Anna shares some of the important lessons she’s learned about building a business from scratch, listening to advice but filtering unsolicited feedback and her experience navigating the fund-raising process.
