Who Should Sit Around the Table

Deciding who to add to the new company’s ecosystem is critical but not easy.

Entrepreneurs know they will have to add other individuals and groups to their business as they grow.  The realization hits them early that they cannot be successful alone.  Deciding who to add and when to bring them on board requires careful consideration.  The goal should be to add people to take over certain aspects of the business, not to simply relieve the entrepreneur’s workload.  Although the difference may seem minor, allowing others to take over portions of the business requires a significant shift in an entrepreneur’s mindset, which is not easy.
