In this episode of 'The Bodacious Optimist' hosted by Sascha Mayer, co-founder of Mamava, the focus is on the operations and manufacturing side of the business. Sascha interviews her co-founder Christine Dodson, who oversees manufacturing at Mamava. They discuss the challenges and successes encountered as they decided to take on their own manufacturing during the pandemic to gain cost control and enhance product development. The episode highlights the significant role played by Mark Wiggins, whose manufacturing expertise facilitated the transition. Additionally, they talk about integrating a maternalistic corporate culture in a traditionally male-dominated manufacturing sector and the unique organizational culture at Mamava that includes equal benefits for all employees. The episode underscores the importance of making transformative changes in manufacturing, especially for women, and closes with Christine's personal reflections on entrepreneurship, risk-taking, and maintaining a strong company culture.
