  • Most fast-growing companies aspire to global leadership in their industries. They often start as insurgents: fast, agile and adaptable. But to win in the long term they must scale, often losing what we call the Founder's Mentality.

    As a founder, I can relate. This video is 100% spot on. Owners must drive culture with tremendous grit and never lose culture. Don't lose control! Top-down leadership must dominate.

    Thanks for sharing!This is great description of private owned companies in growing pains or when they transition after being acquired by larger corporations ...Large companies tend to accelerate the lost of Founders mentality of smaller acquired companies instead of preserving the competitive advantages...sometimes kill the company when they do not open market scale opportunities to these companies.Liked the energy vampire suckers image. Very real.

    As a founder and recently acquired company your research rings more true than most realize. It is the focus and noble pursuit that drives a culture and the talent that lies within. We were able to wiggle our way out of the insurgents grip and now operating as a stand alone while finding ways to connect with the insurgents strength. As a founder, I would not have stayed without this fundamental change back to who we are. Thank you!

    Really well done. Clear, concise and spot on. Having worked with many larger incumbent companies the cultural normals and the inertia to complacency really resonate. Great explanation.

    Really enjoyed the simplicity and elegance of this. The age-old 2x2 is such a useful tool. In this case, applied to a topic about size and complexity

    Solution Summary
    12:00
    Keep your heroes in the hallways
    Develops systems that amplify your heroes without replacing them [best utilizing their leadership]. Target black sheep. Focus your recruiting on acquiring insurgents, those who know what it means to war with an industry on behalf of a customer, not incumbents, who submit to the status quota.

    Good content, but enough with the overly-close close ups and pointless tracking back and forth behind that chair. Find a new look. Look at how other yt channels frame shots for small screens.

    Well produced video.
    However, "the matrix is here to stay" - that is utter nonsense, because it is a complicated response to complexity.
    And thus: a DUMB response.
    A smart response to market complexity is not matrix structures - but decentralization.
