Insight
Employees accept new external leaders if they still have growth potential
“Maybe you used to report to me, but I don't think anyone is unexcited to report to a new leader so long as that leader is someone where they still feel like they have room to grow.”

Insight
Brand is one of the last defensible differentiators for tech companies
“I think their brand is one of the last few opportunities of something you can do that is different and unique about your company. It's easier than ever to copy more and more things about a company and a product. Brand's a tough one to do.”

Opinion
Startups no longer need to be near VCs to raise top capital
“I completely disagree with the idea that if you want to get amazing investors, you know, you have to be in their backyard. I think that used to be the case very much, but now I think it's absolutely not anymore.”

Insight
Failed knowledge systems cause severe expert burnout from constant direct questions
“They just revert back to asking the experts. And you see the burden that creates on the company around shoulder tapping experts and burning them out and, you know, stuff we just see over and over and over again with our customers today.”

Opinion
Building a tech startup outside major hubs is a unique advantage
“I think that it is a net positive. It is a unique advantage to be building a company outside of a tech hub for several reasons, but to stick with the talent one first.”

Insight
Companies should review and update their core values annually
“I don't think that your values are etched in stone. Like, I don't think you want to change them weekly. But we've kind of taken on the path of doing them once a year, because I think you tend to evolve them based on what the company needs.”
