Video FAQs

From Solo Developer to Venture Scale Entrepreneur: Jordan Boesch, CEO of 7shifts (Part 5)

Sramana Mitra: Did you just do more of the same for the next few years?

Jordan Boesch: Yes. There were some interesting moments. We hit about 30 people. You start to feel these inflection points where things start to get rocky. It’s a lack of process for things. As a startup, you thrive off of not having processes.

As we grew, I could feel that starting to happen at 30 people. We brought in a consultant to help us in putting in some lightweight frameworks to help guide the business. That was helpful for us. When we hit 50 people, we had almost a full-time facilitator that was part of our team that was doing planning with us and helping with some lightweight frameworks.

Colors: Green Valley I

I’m publishing this series on LinkedIn called Colors to explore a topic that I care deeply about: the Renaissance Mind. I am just as passionate about entrepreneurship, technology, and business, as I am about art and culture. In this series, I will typically publish a piece of art – one of my paintings – and I request you to spend a minute or two deeply meditating on it. I urge you to watch your feelings, thoughts, reactions to the piece, and write what comes to you, what thoughts it triggers, in the dialog area. Let us see what stimulation this interaction yields. For today – Green Valley I
