Join in for a conversation with Martin Hauck, Head of Talent at Coinsquare. Coinsquare is a cryptocurrency in Toronto most commonly known for its cryptocurrency exchange but the company has been growing rapidly and adding more services and we look at the man who has helped it scale from 40 to 100+. When I first met Martin he hooked me with telling me he dropped out of high school in grade 10. That piqued my interest and we dig into his journey today. Martin's journey begins with being misunderstood in high school and learning business by actually operating a nuts and bolts business. We go through why he changed plans to pursue broadcasting at a university to breaking into tech with an industrial goods background by starting with slapping stickers on his laptop. Martin has gone through a very unique journey that focused on having a 'great conversation' and we learn why he does what he does today.
