Hey, my name is Niklas and I am one of the founding employees at Jodel. During my years at this local social media company I already worked as Head of Community, Head of Growth and am currently working as the Head of Expansion to bring Jodel to more countries.

Jodel is your hyperlocal community connecting millions of users to like-minded people in their immediate surroundings.

As such I have helped launch, nurture and grow the Jodel communities across Europe, build up a user-based moderation system, set up the support structure and managed online and offline campaigns to create sustainable local communities.

During this crazy journey I have learned a lot of lessons from leadership to navigating the weird social dynamics happening online every day.

My Mentoring Topics

moderation systems
growth (on- and offline)
growth models (basic growth model, virality, user stages, LTV, etc)
user interviews
OKRs (quarterly goal setting)
leadership
agile management
hypothesis-driven experimentation
