Quick Tip: Are You Scaling Your Business Too Quickly?

As an entrepreneur, it’s normal to want to grow your business as much as you can and as quickly as possible.

When an opportunity to scale the business presents itself, it may seem like the right move for your company. However, without proper guidance, you could end up scaling too fast and negatively impact your business.

How do you prepare to scale your business?

Evidence that a company may be scaling too quickly can be seen if the teams begin to fracture.

Because scaling can be as stressful as it is exciting, leaders who commit to building trust-based, cohesive teams (starting at the executive level) are more likely to scale efficiently.

Once scaling beings in earnest, strong, high-performing teams ensure mutual accountability and collective results. - Lisa Walsh, Beacon Executive Coaching
