Executive Search for Tech Startups

Attract Accomplished Startup Leaders

Founder Burnout Rates Are High
What's the Solution?

Securing capital, balancing the need to innovate with limited resources, managing rapid growth while maintaining quality and efficiency are a few of the top struggles facing startup leaders.

Aside from these common challenges, investors can place various demands on startup founders adding to the pressure to succeed.

Some of these demands are to achieve milestones promptly, as well as exhibit scalable business models and growth strategies to facilitate rapid expansion.

Getting Professional Help–Landing Cornerstone Talent

In the startup culture, it is common to fall into a harmful pattern of constantly “putting out fires”. This leads to short term reactive management versus strategic planning for sustained growth.

No matter how deep the talents of the founding team are, there comes a time to acquire elite-level executive skills that can raise the organization to the next level.

The endgame usually being a successful exit, whether through acquisition, IPO, or other means, for all stakeholders.

If that endgame is perceived as in jeopardy, then changes in management are sure to follow.

These firms may need a C-level executive with proven fund raising and investor relations talents. A mid-stage startup may be in search of operational skills to organize for growth and scalability.
