Hiring a Team for your Technical Startup with Natalie Ledbetter

Hiring a Team for your Technical Startup with Natalie Ledbetter

This week, I talked to Natalie Ledbetter, Head of People and Platform at Boldstart Ventures. We talked about how startups can approach team and culture building, including:

  • How to prioritize your hires
  • Common mistakes founders make when building a team
  • Why you should always avoid brilliant jerks, even if they are very brilliant
  • How to divide responsibilities between founders
  • Anticipating growth and setting your team up so that it can scale as easily as possible
  • The difference in skills sets between 'startup people' and employees you would want to hire later on
