Did you know that roughly 70% of scaleups in the U.S. decline yearly (some very publicly!) due to scaling too quickly?
It’s a daunting reality not many founders and growth executives talk about.

We need to try harder to accept the willingness to care beyond our own self-interest. The world need us now more than ever ✊🏼

Not always what’s legal is ethical, what’s ethical is moral, and what’s moral is virtuous. Sound judgement comes from our ability to discern across that whole spectrum of nuance.
