Studies show that 23% of startups fail due to issues with their team composition or dynamics. Poor leadership and lack of collaboration are significant factors, with 86% of executives citing insufficient collaboration as a reason for company failures. Venture capitalists recognize the importance of human capital, with 95% considering founders as a crucial factor in investment decisions.

This method focuses on identifying key attributes such as adaptability, resilience, and teamwork – qualities that are crucial in both special operations and innovative tech environments. It might sound common sense but I’m sure folks reading this have been part of some shitty teams and I’d argue that the cause was a poor hiring experience. #team #hiring #specialoperations #skyfi #startups
