4 Responsibilities for Leading 300+ Person Teams Part 2 Path for Growth with Alex Judd

    • Management

The strategies that help an organization grow to 300 people will not be effective in getting it to 1,000 people. In this episode, we continue our conversation about the four biggest things leaders of 300+ person teams should focus on: communication rhythms, leadership development, executive reinvention, and a culture of decentralized improvement. We also discuss the traits a leadership team needs in order to pursue reinvention, and the different relationship buckets every leader should try to fill.
