Hiring is about more than filling seats: It’s about bringing in the right people to help you build the company you envision. As a founder, you're not just choosing teammates, you're shaping culture, defining expectations, and deciding what you no longer want to do yourself. It’s both a strategic and emotional process, especially in the early stages when every hire has an outsized impact. Good hiring requires clarity about what you need, honesty about what you can offer, and the willingness to invest time into finding people who align with your pace, values, and goals.
