Your startup will only grow as fast as your team. Here’s how great founders build powerful teams:
1. Hire for Energy, Not Just Skills: Skills can be taught. Passion and grit cannot.
2. Culture Isn’t Ping Pong: Set values early—respect, ownership, communication—then hire by them.
3. Transparent Leadership: Share wins, losses, goals. Openness builds trust.
4. Micro-Coaching Moments: Weekly 1:1s with honest feedback help talent thrive.
5. Celebrate Effort, Not Just Outcomes: Encouragement keeps your team inspired—even through hard weeks.
