The name of the game is flexibility. Today’s guest is an agent of change who has an exit under his belt, a transition from founder out of the CEO seat and recently increased the company from a 4-day, back to a 5-day work week.
Join Jim and Alejandro as they go deep discussing Alejandro’s journey building Komet Sales - a vertically integrated floral platform - with a focus on what it means to build a strong culture and how to align people to the company’s long-term vision.
3 Key Takeaways
- Embrace Change: Don’t get attached. Whether that’s a title, a GTM approach, a person on your team. Things change, the ability to adapt quickly is an asset. Learn to let go, to move forward!
- Find a Mentor: This is a golden nugget that not nearly enough founders/CEOs do. As Warren Buffet says, “It’s good to learn from your mistakes. It’s better to learn from other people’s mistakes.”
- Understand People: Take the time to know your team. This is the foundation for culture. When people believe in what you’re doing, combined with a strong sense of connection, you’ve got a recipe for company success.
