@Solana_zh Star Growth Progamme is full of surprises. Tonight I had the pleasure of listening to @Backpack's @_mikel talk on team building and development. First of all, who is Mikel? // BCG, WPP Background, Head of Growth in Backpack Europe His advice on finding talent for Web 3 startup teams- 1. Confirm which mountain the company will eventually climb Confirm the track, decide the goal, and do team building according to the actual situation. Don't simply copy another company's architecture. Even if it is the same track, different development stages, different markets, the form of the team will be very different. 2. The team is the comrades-in-arms The journey to the top is bound to be challenging. The start-up team is not so much an employee as a comrade-in-arms, someone who helps you when you are depressed and confused. So looking for a team is looking for someone who can hand over the back to him. 3. Cross the river with stones Innovators, uncertain also. A start-up business is like finding an exit in a maze, where everyone is crossing the river with a stone. In this environment full of uncertainty, people who can learn, react, and grow quickly are more likely to find a way out. 4. It's all empty talk until it's built successfully Only delivery is the real end. Understand the background of a potential team member by what he has built, not what he has said. 5. The start-up team members are the mother cells of the organization The first dozen or so members of the company will inevitably have to wear many hats, and then the way they do things will have a deep impact on the culture of the future organization, so the resilience and flexibility of these people will also be important. Therefore, @_mikel message: / When looking for the initial first/second batch of teams, startups must consider his/her long-term contribution to the development of the organization. If you only solve some very intuitive single needs, you can give priority to third-party services in the Web 3 era. Leave the rare position of the Core Team to the right people. However, when you meet the right person, don't leave your hands. Mikel also shared a lot of precautions for personnel management during the scale-up phase. There are also tools that are commonly used in management. If you want to know more, welcome to the @Solana_zh Growth Bootcamp! P.S. Finally, I attach a reason why the @solana eco-system has survived the trough and brick by brick has been built back. @armaniferrante @rajgokal @aeyakovenko You guys are focking Mad!
