About this listen

 You've finally reached the stage where you need to bring in the "adults"—the experienced VPs who will help you scale. You hire a star with a flawless resume from a FAANG company, but within six months, your culture is in ruins, your best people are quitting, and you're burning through cash.

You've just made the single most expensive mistake a scaling startup can make: you hired the wrong VP.This episode is a post-mortem on the catastrophic executive mis-hire. We'll break down why a great resume can be a red flag, how to distinguish between a "scaler" and a "maintainer," and the painful but necessary steps to recover after a key leadership hire goes toxic. This is an essential guide to building your leadership team and protecting the culture that got you here in the first place.
