What does it mean to grow and mature as an entrepreneur and director? How can a fresh entrepreneur feel confident in what he or she does? A few weeks ago, I interviewed Isabel Portero from Biohope, an exceptional entrepreneur who has been growing rapidly over the past five years. We discussed the benefits she found in my services. Isabel told me that, after our journey together, beyond the technical skills she acquired, such as for example creating a perfect P&L, one of the greatest benefits she experienced was feeling like she was growing as an entrepreneur. She felt more confident. She knew more precisely what she was doing. She learned how to speak with business angels. She understood how to ask for funding for her project. From there, I asked myself: what does it mean to grow and mature as an entrepreneur? Recently, I read an article by Martin Zwilling on Inc. Magazine called "7 Ways to Continue Growing as Your Business Matures" (you can find the link in the first comment). The last point Zwilling discusses in the article particularly struck me. "Don't use accounting tricks to fake expansion," he says. Basically, in this last point, he talks about how financial assets can be quickly bought and sold to generate gains that may look like growth on paper, but relying on such tactics will only fool yourself in the long run. True, sustainable growth requires more than superficial financial maneuvers. It's essential to invest your intellectual efforts in being transparent with your stakeholders, simplifying your core processes, better understanding your competitors, and swiftly reacting to market changes. In other words: being able to use your skills to see what is happening in the market, to substantively analyze what your customers are asking for, and to know what your competitors are doing. There are no magic formulas for maturing as directors, executives, or entrepreneurs. There is the effort and humility to learn, to understand, to analyze. Just like Isabel did. What do you think about it?

“The ship is unsinkable.” A quote from Mr. Phillip Franklin, Vice-President of White Star Line, famously declaring the Titanic unsinkable before its tragic sinking. This anecdote illustrates deeper flaws in human nature, such as confirmation bias and overconfidence, which contribute to business strategy failures. Despite clear intentions, real-world outcomes often fall short of expectations. In our latest blog we take a look at 10 reasons why some business strategies, though great on paper, end up failing when they are put into practice and how you can avoid these pitfalls in your own business.
