Velocity Vector (Part 5): The Anatomy of Growth – 12 Warning Signs of Success

It’s true. NOTHING KILLS FASTER THAN SUCCESS.

That’s because success has a way of masking the issues that rob an organization of its full potential. Every healthy business matures through 3 distinct stages of growth with different characteristics and problems at each stage. If you are successful, you will grow yourself into problems. As a leader, it’s your responsibility to know which stage of growth your organization is in. You must be able to predict and prepare for the journey ahead so you don’t stall out – or worse.

In the Velocity Vector Series’s final chapter, I will unpack exactly what happens as a company scales. I’ll also explain the two critical inflection points in every growing business and what you need to do as a leader to solve the crucial Warning Signs of Success that growth causes in every healthy organization.

Don’t waste your IQ points solving problems that have already been solved by the countless other high-growth businesses before yours. Listen and learn now:
