How I Did It is a podcast produced by Koda Capital’s Philanthropy & Social Capital team. Each episode features a proven leader from the philanthropic or non-profit community talking about how they achieved what they achieved. The emphasis is on the individual and how they did what they did, rather than retelling the story of what was achieved. By focusing on what it takes to get the job done, listeners get to hear the kind of insight you can only get from listening to real leaders talking about their own experience.
This series is part of Koda’s commitment to bringing valuable insights to people working in philanthropy and the field of social leadership.
