Host Kenya Gibson is joined by Tristan Walker, CEO & Founder of Walker & Company Brands. Tristan talks about how he pivoted from Wall Street to starting his own company after looking for beauty, hair and skin products to cater to his needs. Tristan goes on to talk about creating something from the ground up and being a successful business owner and leader.

Fed up with razor blades that irritated his skin, and tired of walking down “ethnic” beauty aisles, entrepreneur Tristan Walker decided to start his own company. In 2013 he launched Bevel, a suite of shaving products designed for Black men.  Walker & Company Brands was acquired by Procter & Gamble in 2018, making Tristan the first Black CEO of a P&G subsidiary.   In this episode of Leadership Next he tells Alan Murray and Ellen McGirt that he believes all companies should have a plan to serve customers of color. “Every company in 20 years, when folks of color become the majority in this country, if they do not have a plan to serve this audience with empathy, I believe that they will not exist.”  Walker believes the global pandemic may have accelerated opportunity for employees of color, and he shares his outlook on the likelihood of lasting change in the wake of this past summer’s social justice uprising. Also in the conversation: why Walker sold his startup to the giant P&G, his complicated feelings around venture capital, and advice for other Black entrepreneurs.

One thing to keep in mind if you’re building a Personal Brand...it’s personal.   And that means, some will like you, some won’t. Just like with real people.   This is less of an issue with Company Brands.   So are you willing to pay the penalty for the potential upside?   PS: Here’s the useful book on branding I recommended...   https://www.amazon.com/BRAND-MANAGEMENT-CHECKLIST-Brad-VanAuken/dp/0749436999   #branding #personalbrand #companybrand

Tristan Walker is the founder/CEO of Walker and Company Brands which houses BEVEL and Form Beauty. Nas is a huge supporter of BEVEL and even mentions it in a DJ Khaled song "signature fade with the BEVEL blade". We gain insight on this purpose-driven entrepreneur who created his brand to solve a problem for black men worldwide.

Employees can also be your company's best brand advocates. And since 50% of employees on social media are already posting about their company (based on MSL Group Social Employee Advocacy 2015 study), it's to the benefit of the company brand to ensure employees understand not only the company's brand voice but also their own and how the two are connected. On this episode Diane Diaz helps us to explore how we can find the happy medium between personal brand and company brand and use this to create winning organizations.  

Tristan Walker is the founder and CEO of Walker and Company Brands. He's 33 years old. In this episode I somewhat jokingly say that growing up, he was an odd kid, because of the surface contradictions. He's a business mind who made a name for himself when he joined a mobile technology startup, but his first company focuses on skin and hair care. He grew up in a working-class family in New York, and his father was killed when he was young – but he went to a boarding school. His most prominent investors? Andreessen Horowitz, the marquee Silicon Valley venture capital firm – but he and I speak plainly about Silicon Valley's diversity challenges. I recently visited Tristan Walker at the offices of Walker & Company Brands in Palo Alto, California, the heart of Silicon Valley. This episode was special for me, because, let's be frank: There aren't many African-American technology journalists in this business. I'm one. There aren't many African-American entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley, and Tristan is arguably the best-known. I'm seven years older than Tristan, but we're of a similar generation. We've been a part of this era of sweeping change, and seen what's missing ... and who's missing. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Walker & Company Brands founder and CEO Tristan Walker talks with Recode's Kara Swisher about the company's attempts to tap into the "wide-open opportunity" of making health and beauty products for people of color. Walker discusses the difficulties he has faced in raising money, due to a combination of investors' general aversion to e-commerce companies and specific skepticism about how many people can benefit from a product like Walker's Bevel razor. He also explains why he's planning to keep the business independent, building something that will last 200 years or more. Later this year, Walker & Company plans to launch a line of beauty products for women that are personalized to where the buyer lives and travels. Learn more about your ad choices.

Walker & Company Brands founder and CEO Tristan Walker talks with Recode's Kara Swisher about how technology can disrupt the health and beauty industry. Walker & Company's shaving brand, Bevel, is aimed at people of color who are underserved by the big cosmetics companies, and Walker says he plans to focus even more on personalized products those competitors can't deliver. An alumnus of Twitter, Foursquare and Andreessen Horowitz, he also discusses his problems with tech companies' "culture fit," and why those who say they can't find talented black and Latino tech workers are spouting "complete bullshit."
