Scaling Up - Key Recruitment Pitfalls

Team & execution – a core factor to the success of start-ups

Having supported the scaling of multiple tech start-ups pre and post-funding, I know how important building out the right technology team is!

A common misconception with many founders is that money and a strong vision will solve your issues, skyrocket your company, you cash out, your investors cash out and life will be bliss.

Unfortunately, not! Regardless of investment or current perception, you will still encounter challenges both internal and external. We are entering an increasingly difficult global socioeconomic climate with growing competition in the start-up world etc., and keeping talent is becoming harder!

You NEED to have a strong and attractive tech strategy which is sustainable, cost and time effective, and a great technology team filled with the right combination of talent and expertise where your employees feel valued and share a common goal.

The most successful tech start-ups I’ve worked with understand the importance of having the right people in their business.
