#35 Communicating Vision is Imperative W/ Eric & Marita Herkert-Oakland

This week Jason Fishman speaks with Eric & Marita Herkert-Oakland, Co-Founders of Relumed. Eric & Marita walks us through how they were able to Test, Optimize, and Scale their businesses.  

Co-Founder and Lead Facilitator, Marita is driven to advance and improve the goals of any organization she works in and with. Marita holds a Masters of Arts from the University of Chicago School of Social Service Administration, and has applied her skills in a wide range of experiences from nonprofit program management to work in state government to marketing in a small business and startup. 

Co-Founder and Lead Visualizer, Eric’s drive is to bring common understanding of an organization to leadership and teams through visual communication. He leverages experience in design, video production, animation, graphic facilitation, marketing, brand management and more, to bring stories and ideas to light.

Marita & Eric have worked together in many different capacities in their 13 years of marriage and before, but this is their first co-founded venture together. They have many things in common but complement each other even more. While this is the first business they have co-founded, they’ve experienced every hardship and thrill of owning and building businesses together. The last 10+ years have been about learning the power of creativity in business. Wielding it to illuminate your business problems and the path forward. Articulating purpose, telling your story, setting strategy, and aligning your team and resources toward your goals. Relumed uses the power of creativity so change makers can gain new perspectives in the work they do.
