The Scale-Up Team Podcast (by Equalture)

People, Product and Market. These are the three components that make or break your startup success. Most founders have sleepless nights thinking about their product and market, but what they often tend to forget is the fact that a product can never be built and its fit with the market will never be found if you don’t have an amazing team to do this with. Together.

In this fifth episode, Charlotte chats with Anouk de Wolff, who has helped dozens of scaleups with their hiring and HR strategies, and is nowadays also partner in a Dutch VC fund. One of the things that Anouk helps scaleup founders with is not only creating and executing a hiring strategy, but also challenging the founders on which position they actually should get within the company. We discuss her view on the role of a founder in a growing team.
