Why Your Startup Culture Is The Most Important Key To Your Success
A good friend of mine just a joined a hot startup here in the Silicon Valley. The company is on fire.
The executive team has previously been uber-successful. Revenue is getting near what I call escape velocity. Plus, they’ve exceeded their revenue goals every quarter for two years straight.
I think my friend is going to hit it big.
But, lately when I see him, he’s been complaining. Things seem to be changing at his new company, and not for the better. When I ask him what’s wrong he says it has to do with a new executive the company has hired.
Your company’s culture is the key to your company’s success as a startup CEO.
My friend’s company just hired a new VP, and this new VP is creating havoc. My friend is telling me the new VP is not meshing well with his new team.
According to my friend, the new VP is rude and obnoxious. The new VP appears not to be building confidence with his new team. And the new executive is not shy either; he’s displaying his bad temper in front of the CEO and other senior executives.
