Update: 2023-10-04
Description
In episode 18, Jonah Midanik shares his journey and experience in a growth mindset of recognizing that ‘what got you here won’t get you there. He has been lucky enough to have seen the startup journey from a variety of perspectives: as a successful bootstrapped founder/CEO, having helped launch new corporate divisions at BigCo, and as the founder/CEO of Limelight, a Venture backed company. Jonah currently spends his time helping companies grow with Forum Ventures as the COO and General Partner.
Jonah shares a crucial tip in the discussion around ‘what got you here won’t get you there’. The tip for every founder or leader involves 3 key steps:
- Conduct an honest self-assessment. Asking yourself what you’re struggling with, what does the company need from you right now, where I need to go? Identify the gaps in the stage.
- Approach your peers, mentors, founders, etc. Ask what they think you are really good at vs not great at. Write all this down.
- Finally, review your notes and ask if you can do this, or if you event want to do this. If it’s absolutely yes, then you will find the resources that will get you there.
