Building the Ideal Team for Scaling
At VP and C-level, growth stalls in the leadership layer long before it stalls in the market. This course shows you how to assess your leadership team against next year's goals, develop the leaders you have, hire the directors and VPs you lack, and decide early and honestly who scales with the company.

How a lesson works
Each lesson is about five minutes, the slides with Andreas narrating, or audio only on your phone between meetings. It opens on one situation at the executive level, teaches one tool, and closes with your move: one thing to do before the next lesson. The full written lesson sits under the player, so you can read instead, or go back for the exact sentence you want to use.
Created and narrated by Andreas Pettersson. The narration uses an AI model of Andreas's own voice.
