Building a great product is hard. Building a great company is harder. The leap from scrappy founder to scalable CEO isn’t just operational — it’s personal. It requires you to rewire how you lead, how you hire, and how you build a culture that performs without you in every room. Most founders underestimate it. The best ones talk about it openly. Together, they’ll break down the leadership and culture shift that separates founders who scale from founders who stall.
