EP47 Egbe Manton on Startup Legals, Unconscious Bias and Getting Ahead Raise The Bar

Today’s guest is Egbe Manton, lawyer and founder of Manton Legal Consultancy.

In this episode Egbe tells us how she has built a successful law career, securing promotions by eliminating unconscious bias variables wherever possible, like the time she took off her wedding ring for a job interview.

Egbe tells us how contracts are fundamental to protect your business and create healthy boundaries with clients, ensuring everyone is on the same page and helping avoid scope creep.

And despite the fact that Egbe’s work is to deromanticise business by grounding it in its practicalities, Egbe tells us that shareholder agreements really do bring people together!
