Success and Self-Confidence Through Rejection | Ted Ladd | TEDxHultAshridge

Ted Ladd is a professor, a high-tech entrepreneur, and formerly a grizzly bear biologist. His talk blends these three experiences into advice for designing a successful startup venture. Ted Ladd is an associate professor of entrepreneurship and a research fellow at Hult International Business School, primarily on its San Francisco campus, as well as an instructor at Harvard University in Cambridge. His research focuses on methods to design successful business models for early-stage startups. He holds a PhD in the management of sustainable business systems from Case Western Reserve, an MBA in entrepreneurship from Wharton, an MA in international economics with honors from Johns Hopkins, a BA triple majoring in government, biology, and sociology cum laude from Cornell, and a certificate in horseshoeing. Ted received a Fulbright Scholarship as a SyCip fellow to teach entrepreneurship in the Philippines. His research won three grants from the National Science Foundation, the best paper in social entrepreneurship from the Academy of Management, and the paper most relevant to practicing entrepreneurs from USASBE. He was the director of ecosystems at a startup backed by Foxconn to pioneer the wearable internet of things (a “smartwatch”) until it was acquired by Google as the basis for Android Wear. He has founded, led, or participated in five mobile-tech and clean-tech startups, with a variety of outcomes (some good, some not). Ted and his wife live in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where he is on the board of several private, public, and non-profit organizations emphasizing economic development.
