Chad sits down with Mathilde Collin, CEO of Front.

If you’d like to imagine a bright future for email – better correspondence, being more effective – Front is working on it. Their platform puts all your messages, apps, and teammates in one place and puts you in control of your inbox.

Mathilde grew up in the suburbs of Paris where she became fascinated by the number of people that disliked their jobs. She didn’t want to be like those people someday and didn’t want her coworkers (or employees) feeling that way either. Today, she’s built a company that values not just their customers but also employee happiness.

Key Discussion Points:

• Mathilde shares what Front is as well her journey to where she is today
• The few things you should celebrate as your company grows
• Mathilde describes how she crafted her life philosophy: Front is her passion, not her life
• She shares how to become more happy at work
• Tips for getting the balance right between your personal identity and your business identity
• What email would be like if it was designed today
• Where Mathilde’s competitive motivations come from and how she channels them into her mission at Front as well as her life outside
• Mathilde’s experiences at Y Combinator and working with investors and partners
• Plus, Mathilde shares how she builds a fun, ‘Lego-centric’ culture
