Description

Welcome to Episode 14 of VHTB, your go-to podcast for insights into the talent, culture, and finance sides of the space startup ecosystem. This week, hosts Matt Gjertsen, Seyka Majeur, and Justus Killian dive into the fascinating dynamics of leadership transitions and the different skill sets required as startups evolve from invention to scale and beyond. They break down the distinct stages of company growth—from chaotic early days to mature, stable operations—and how each demands a unique approach and mindset from founders and executives. With personal stories, hands-on experience, and behind-the-scenes wisdom, our hosts explore why it's so rare for leaders to thrive across every phase, and why self-awareness, adaptability, and the right team can make or break success in this fast-moving industry. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, investor, or just curious about the inner workings of cutting-edge startups, this episode is packed with practical advice and real-world examples you won’t want to miss.
