How did the chief executives of some of the world's fastest growing companies scale their businesses so effectively? When you're growing in the double digital figures or beyond, there's many things that you need to address. There's team there's culture, there's scaling that culture across new offices, as you open those up against new business models, that you have product market fit that you need to assess the strategic decisions, is working with customers, there's building something sustainable, all of these things are at play and it's only a rough few people who can create high growth over a sustained period. In this season, we look once again at the Financial Times 1000 list of fastest growing companies in Europe and in the Americas and I interview, the chief executives of some of those incredible companies did the season like this a while back on the podcast, and it was fascinating. So I wanted to dive in again this year, with the recently released Financial Times list and as ever, the results have been extraordinary. The insights are really interesting is such a privilege to speak with Chief execs who are really in the middle of hyper growth, and understand what makes them tick. What's their thought process? And what are the challenges and learnings that they've had along the way. So hope you find this season as valuable as I did. Welcome to secrets of scaling.
