A just-in-time weekend read inspired by Peng T. Ong's conversations with many founders: How can I be a better #leader? How do I lead stronger teams? The answer may be counterintuitive: "Do Less, Be Lazier." This thought piece by Peng and the Monk's Hill Ventures team explores the value of 'Lazy Leadership' and how to avoid leading unconsciously. Fundamentally, it hinges on nurturing your mental maturity as a leader to recognize your limitations, understand the context within which you and your teams operate, and have the tenacity to see things through. If you are in this headspace, have a read, and let us know what you think in the comments. https://lnkd.in/gTUP8gCv Andit Intasworo Gullnaz Baig Phong T.

Our Principal, Arun Pai, speaks with The Asian Business Review about blitzscaling, a growth strategy that prioritizes speed over efficiency. He highlights the concept of negative blitzscaling, which occurs when a company massively scales its operations and aggressively subsidizes its products (at a loss) to outbid competitors for market share, without having a sound business in place. The focus on valuation building instead of value creation creates a false sense of progress that would prove fatal to many startups. Arun emphasizes that startups can achieve sustainable growth only if built on a strong foundation. This entails having the right people, the right culture, and a solution that truly solves a problem. Read more about negative blitzscaling and the dangers it brings in this article by Peng T. Ong and Phong T.: From Unicorns to Unicorpses: The False Promise of Negative Blitzscaling https://lnkd.in/g8fp4Hzx
The success of tech giants has popularised blitzscaling, a high-risk approach that prioritises speed over efficiency. However, this strategy isn't suitable for every startup, according to Arun Pai, Principal at Monk's Hill Ventures. https://bit.ly/3VSrgCD

The first of our MHV Breakfast Series brought together seasoned finance leaders with our portfolio CFOs and founders to discuss their top-of-mind concerns around fundraising, capital preservation, and strategic capital allocation. A few takeaways from our panel featuring Allen Shim and Juliet Zhu, CFA, moderated by Monk's Hill Ventures Head of Talent Cheryl Liew: 📈 Growth in context: While often celebrated, growth must be evaluated against cost structure, margin potential, and market position to truly understand competitive advantage. 💡 Value creation vs. valuation: Regularly stress-testing your business model is crucial for sustainable growth and strategic refinement. 🤓 Navigating imposter syndrome: Even experienced leaders face self-doubt. The antidote? Developing unparalleled expertise in your industry and business. Our gratitude goes out to Stripe for their partnership, to our portfolio founders and CFOs for their participation, and to the seasoned finance leaders who gave us their mornings: our Head of Corporate Development, Ali Darwish, Rahmat Budiardjo from Kopi Kenangan, Justin C. from Circles, Leigh Gui, CFA from SHEIN, Dominic Ong from Endowus, Cho Weihao from Una Brands, and Sabrina Ng from CXA Group and Hummingbird Bioscience.
