Your founding team delivered your first million-dollar quarter - but can they scale you to $10 million and beyond?
Join Enterprise Business Agility Consultant Om Patel and Product Manager Brian Orlando as we talk through the challenging transition from startup scrappiness to operational excellence. Along the way, we ask about loyalty vs. performance, innovation vs. optimization, and how to manage team evolution without destroying trust and culture.

• Why early-stage generalists struggle with structured processes
• The emotional cost of replacing founding team members
• Innovation vs. optimization team dynamics
• Career development and succession planning
• Communication strategies for organizational change
• The role of coaches in team transitions
