NOTE

Moderation in Growth Breeds Stability

Rapid growth, while often celebrated, can lead to significant risks and challenges for a company. Achieving a staggering 100% growth may not be as beneficial as consistently growing at 40% annually. High growth can generate skepticism among investors and banks, who view it as increased risk rather than opportunity. This counterintuitive perspective emphasizes the importance of steady growth, which fosters a more sustainable trajectory. Additionally, hyper growth can strain company culture and team dynamics, as the rush to hire can result in poor cultural fits and subpar talent, ultimately harming the organization. Thus, prioritizing incremental growth over explosive increases can enhance stability and long-term success.
