Great advice from Ned Renzi of Birchmere Ventures, seasoned start-up founder and investor, in this #MasterStrokePodcast. With 20+ startup years under my belt - I particularly love the idea that you'll be more successful if you love the problem you're solving rather than just being in love with your technology. #startups

Episode 3: Frameworks for Founders - Collaborative Stances I had a fantastic conversation with Julie Penner of Soul of Startups on my podcast, Musings of an Entrepreneur. Julie and I dove deep into frameworks for founders—specifically the Collaborative Stances framework—and how it can transform decision-making at startups. As someone who's worked closely with startups for over 20 years, Julie's insights were invaluable. We explored how different levels of collaboration can impact your team's success, from Telling to Co-Creating. Trust, safety, and skill-building are key themes. And we talked about the practical tools to help founders empower their teams, reduce drama, and move up the "decision-making ladder." If you're a founder looking to enhance your team's collaboration and decision-making, or just curious about how frameworks can make a difference in your journey, you won’t want to miss this one. 📽️Watch the full episode: Link in the comments 📖 Check out Julie’s Frameworks for Founders here: https://lnkd.in/grUFD2Xu #StartupTips #Founders #TeamBuilding #Frameworks #CollaborativeLeadership #DecisionMaking StairStep Strategies

Successful businesses have a few things in common. One big one is that they set thoughtful, achievable, measurable Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). Particularly if your startup is backed by private capital, and even more particularly if it is scaling quickly, you must set and work against relevant KPIs. Doing so lays a path to manageable growth and shows investors you are able to navigate it. In this episode of the BIP Ventures Extraordinary Pursuits podcast, business and sales performance expert John Thackston from SOAR Performance Group shares what you need to know about KPIs, including: 📍 What metrics to track 📍 How to use KPIs to build a performance snapshot 📍 Why KPIs are critical tools that investors use to gauge a startup's potential This is a great discussion whether you're just getting started or want to check whether you're still on track with measuring what matters. 🎧 https://buff.ly/3xcYxA2 #KPI #KeyPerformanceIndicator #Metrics #Startup #Investment #Podcast #ExtraordinaryPursuits
