A founder explains why startups need different people at each growth stage. The team that works at $10M won't work at $100M, and clinging to early employees or the original vibe will hold you back.
This is the people that get you to 10 million are not. The people that get you to 100 million people get you to 100 million are not. People get you to 500 and then to a billion. And so what happens is, as a founder, you get so you know, you know what it's like that startup vibe, those early people, the work that they do and the times you have together, that all becomes like, so much part of your success story, right? And if you hold on to that for too long, you kind of miss.
