Episode 4 of SBC Leaders is here! Our Global Relationships Director, Kelly Kehn, sits down with Maarja Pärt, CEO of leading crypto gaming firm The Coingaming Group, and gets her thoughts on growing with and beyond cryptocurrencies, creating and maintaining company culture, and what she’s learned since becoming one of the industry’s only female CEOs, and succeeding her mentor, Tim Heath in the role.
Maarja tells Kelly about her ‘Unicorn Farm’ and the role it plays in cultivating Coingaming’s famous culture of innovation, and gives some great insight on the leadership role of a CEO, including the importance of owning up to her own mistakes, learning from difficult situations in the past, and how your perspective changes when you realise the buck stops with you.
