A place where leaders of growing companies share how they grow: in long interviews, and in their own books, research and press releases. Next to that, we bring you the international research and news that helps growing companies, read for you.
Every leader we interview is in their high season. You know what you are good at, and why your company needs exactly that right now.
Every leader is a seasonal leader. Nobody is good at everything. One builds from scratch, another brings order or steers a company through a storm. And every company has its own season. Where the two meet, things go right. Or wrong.
Denise and Karin of ECHT are our first founding duo. Many companies are not built by one person but by two or three founders who complement each other. So we welcome duo and team conversations too: the same questions, each in your own voice.
The newest research on leadership and growth, read for you. Updated 22 October 2026.
A founder finding first traction and a director steadying a mature institution are not doing versions of the same job. Naming the season is what makes leadership advice useful again.
Sets pace from the front, hires fast, and builds belief faster than the org chart can keep up.
Makes the calls under real pressure and is comfortable cutting what no longer fits.
Builds the operating system underneath growth and aligns the team around fewer bets.
A steady hand when the noise is loudest. Prepares the ground for the next spring.

Record your story with a teleprompter, then trim it, add text and save it in the right format for LinkedIn or Instagram. Both run in your browser and keep everything on your own device. No account, no cost.
A teleprompter and camera in one. Your script scrolls while you look into the lens, so you keep eye contact and still say what you meant to say.
The editing table for what you just recorded. Cut out the false starts, put a title, name tag or captions in frame, add a voice-over and save the clip.
Press releases, research and publications from scale-ups, investors and knowledge institutions. Designed with care, published permanently, read by the right people.
Every so often we send a short note: the newest research we have read for you, a leader's interview worth your time, and the occasional practical insight on leading through the seasons. No noise, just the good part.
