Founders who built their companies often can't lead them at scale. The skills that launched the business don't work when you're managing hundreds of people. Most founders get one chance to learn CEO skills or they're out.
But a few of them that sort of popped out to me, and one that I think is probably particularly relevant for a lot of the folks on the audience, because a lot of the audience is sort of growing and scaling rapidly, either because they were at an early stage or because they're in a high-growth sort of area. And so this idea, and you and I chatted about this before, of sort of moving from being the founder to the CEO. Yes. And you talked, you know, in the sort of, I think it was the organizational development part about, you know, what got you here won't get you there. Right. About sort of the CEO really needing to focus on their own internal capabilities. And that's something that, you know, people don't go through a lot. And so for oftentimes for a founder making that transition, it's the first and maybe the only time they'll ever do it if they're going to be with that company for a while.
