Manage episode 462140442 series 3409156
“The only time where I saw all the VPs align is when they all hated the CEO” Why do we keep getting organizations wrong? How should you think about your team, the team of teams, and the organization you’re in?
Our five principles of organizational design and how to navigate growth and scaling challenges, particularly in startups.
takeaways
- Growth should be a collective responsibility across all departments.
- High internal conflict is a sign of poor organizational health.
- C-level executives must act as translators between departments. Internal curiosity is as important as external curiosity.
- Smaller companies often scale too quickly without solid foundations.
- Founders should maintain humility about what they don't know.
Sound Bites
- "We start out with a high-level idea, then complicate it."
- "You should measure MQLs, not celebrate them."
- "Make sure you're alive to fight in the next round."
