Growth is a journey. It's not overnight. It's not like 'follow these steps and suddenly you're successful'. It's about the small victories. - Ed

• Meet your hosts and learn about them.

• Evaluate top-down and bottom-up approaches when building teams.

• Brief discussion on the differences between "Growth" and "Scale"

• Learn to optimize resource allocation and leadership hierarchy for success.

It's not about big moves. It's about those tiny incremental shifts. Hopefully, we can bring some information that can help you guys make those small incremental shifts to get you where you want to be. - James

Evaluating top-down and bottom-up approaches Evaluation of top-down and bottom-up approaches offers diverse pathways to business growth. The top-down approach entails hiring a leader to build a team, while the bottom-up approach suggests investing in contributors first, and then developing leadership as the company progresses. Understanding and discerning which approach best aligns with the company's growth structure and capabilities can lead to a strategic plan that optimally supports the company's expansion goals.
