Riding the emotional rollercoaster of entrepreneurship
My guest today says, “Our company stands out because we don’t just say employees are number one — we mean it.”
Joining me today is Kristen Denzer.
Kristen is the Chief Executive Officer and Founder of Tierra Encantada. Tierra Encantada is the Leader in Spanish Immersion Early Education® and provides care for children ages 6 weeks through 6 years of age. The high-quality education program utilizes proprietary language-immersion curriculum focused on teaching a respect for diversity, and includes fresh-cooked, organic meals designed to expand children’s young palates.
In 2013, while searching for quality early education for her young child, she founded Tierra Encantada’s first location in Eagan, Minnesota. In Spring of 2019, she launched Tierra Encantada’s franchising expansion to provide access to language immersion education to families across the country.
Today, Tierra Encantada has five corporate locations in Minnesota, almost a dozen franchise centers in site development, and over 100 full-time employees.
On today’s show Kristen is going to share:
- Knowledge is power
- No person – nor company is perfect, so always striving for improvement is critical.
- No one can ever prepare you for the emotional rollercoaster ride that embodies entrepreneurship
