“People, that’s what’s going to make or break you.” A snippet that stuck with me from a recent conversation with David Politis. It's a common theme across almost 10 years of The SaaS Revolution show podcast. On the episode with David, we discussed the challenges he’s faced and the mistakes he’s made during his 20+ year career.  His answers all came down to people. He admitted to making “a number of very bad hires” and on reflection attributes a lot of the hard times he faced to people he brought in and leaders hired. Something many founders (myself included) can relate to. Since moving from CEO to Executive Chairman at BetterCloud, he’s reflected on the learnings as part of his Founders Survival Guide: Don’t rush the hire: “Bad” hires were made when there was pressure to get someone in the seat. Hiring senior roles at speed meant they weren’t properly run through the process. Consider the impact–in both directions. Of course, you hire leaders to change the business trajectory for the better. But don’t ignore the potential detrimental impact if you get it wrong in terms of time, dollars, and team. In addition to bringing the right people in, he spoke about being the right person for the job. His role as CEO of BetterCloud changed over the years–from building $15 IKEA desks for new joiners to managing a team of experienced senior leaders. Managing this evolution meant changes to his responsibilities and behaviours. Becoming a motivator and public speaker. To my surprise, this isn’t something that came naturally to him. But as the company scaled, he had to lead and speak in front of his 400+ team. Learning to delegate. One of the biggest changes was taking a step back and not getting stuck in the weeds but rather delegating and trusting his leaders to get the job done. Worth tuning into The David Politis episode of The SaaS Revolution show and also catching him in person at SaaStock Europe in Dublin this October (ticket prices increase tomorrow for the final time). David's going to be sticking around for the full three days and paying it forward to the SaaStock community. #people #hiring #saasrevolutionshow #saastockeurope #saastock2024
