Episode notes
Evaluating Potential
- Evaluate potential by understanding a person's context and the impact they've made given their challenges.
- Focus on what they've uniquely contributed rather than their affiliations.
Talent vs. Founder Qualities
- VCs focused on talent must either evaluate differently or look in different talent pools.
- Great employees don't always make great founders, and vice-versa.
Early-Stage Hiring
- Early-stage founders should prioritize hiring based on business objectives, commercial model, and fundraising cycle.
- If your business is human capital intensive, hire talent acquisition earlier.
