For innovators within established corporations, a crucial question looms: how do we scale our disruptive ideas? Should we nurture them internally, amidst the familiar turf of our existing business, or venture out into the unknown, embracing the agility of external ventures? This "internal vs. external" dilemma is the crux of scaling disruptive innovations, and navigating it requires a nuanced understanding of both sides. https://wix.to/jFRhscb

Wrapping up the weeks conversations with multiple partners at VC firms, the focus on growth expectations in their portfolio is both realistic and very likely good for the companies that they funded. If a company is growing 25%, VCs are asking how could they lift that by 5-15%. They are also asking how companies can get hyper focused to succeed in niches and optimize for efficient growth. And, commonly, most recognize that GTM strategy in place today needs overhauling to succeed. This was inline with what I have been saying for 2 years. Scalable Efficient Growth.

Scaling sustainably is not able going slow. It's about building the right things. Hiring the right people. Compounding your successes. Making the right decisions. Many companies break when they scale too hard.

Structured reviews keep advisory boards aligned with your evolving business needs, ensuring continued relevance. It is possible that after a quarter or half a year passes by, that your startup or scaleup is not facing the same challenges and opportunities that it was when your advisors were first selected to support you in your decision-making. If there is no longer a fit, if there is no longer relevance for the advisors to be providing guidance, then it is possible to update your advisory board. Agility in this regard can help outside reviewers, such as investors, understand that you are always on top of what is needed for your business, which in turn helps them as well. #relevance #alignment #strategy #continuousimprovement #businessneed #agility
