Register Now: Optimizing Your Time in Fun WebinarFast growth, happy customers, highly engaged team – what’s not to love about the Fun stage of growth? There’s nothing like the joy of Fun, especially after overcoming the challenges of Early Struggle to reach it. This is the time of double- or triple-digit growth, when myths and legends are built! In fact the only danger of Fun is if you don’t plan for the future, because it won’t go on forever. In time, complexity creeps in and before you know it, you’re in Whitewater. If you or someone you know is currently experiencing the Fun stage of growth, then be sure to register for our upcoming webinar. In it, we’ll examine how to know if you really are in Fun, how to resist the gravitational pull back to Early Struggle, the four most common mistakes founder/owners and leaders make when their organization is in Fun, and much, much more. Discover how to make the most of this enjoyable stage while also preparing for what comes next. Register for the webinar here |
