The Chickens Come Home To Roost With Element451’s Ardis Kadiu

It was a big episode of The Friday Nooner sponsored by Whitley Recruiting for those who had “Joe talking about his chickens” on your Friday Nooner bingo card. Surprisingly, the chicken talk made our guest feel nostalgic rather than run for the hills.

It turned out that today’s guest—Ardis Kadiu, the Founder and CEO of Raleigh-based Element451—grew up on a farm in Albania that included some chickens. Though he wanted to make it clear that it wasn’t a “chicken farm” per se.

Element451 is a CRM (customer relationship management) and engagement platform for higher education, helping colleges and universities market themselves to and communicate with prospective and current students.
