How to F#ck up your Startup or Scaleup

Four things* are guaranteed to mess up your startup or your attempts to scale up. They impact every team and hijack you and your team if you ignore them.

In this Morning Startup session, James Bryant, Director of Lead Different, will dive into four key areas which, if left to their own devices, will create a mess for any startup or, even worse, strike hard during the scaleup phase.

It doesn’t matter if your startup is in the tech space, resources, or whatever space you’re in. The issues we’re exploring today are about the team and culture that your startup or team operates in.

We’ll dive into these areas and discover how to put systems in place to prevent the f#ck up before it happens. Because the clickbait title isn’t accurate, we’re actually going to explore how to avoid f#cking up your startup or scaleup.

*yeah, there are more than four things, but today we’re going to talk about four things that are linked and work together to f#ck your startup.
