The biggest challenge in growth.

Companies and businesses which seek a high level of growth have a lot of challenges with budget, technology, resources, commercial offering, and strategy.

Yet nothing from the above is a guarantee of growth, nor the biggest challenge while seeking a high growth level.

Why?

Because many companies have them and failed.

• Nokia: had a strong market presence, cutting-edge technology, and a wide range of devices.

• Kodak: invented the digital camera technology.

• MySpace: One of the earliest and most popular social networking platforms.

• BlackBerry: was once a leading name in the smartphone market, known for its secure messaging system and physical keyboards.

All of those companies and more failed despite having logical growth levers.

So what is the biggest lever of growth?

A growth mindset that can’t be conquered

having teams that have individuals that have growth undefeated mindset, and as someone who has been working for 11 years in growth, here is what I observed of high growth teams:

• The teams which behave as if they are competitive sports teams

• They face every day as a new game that should be won

• They challenge other team members to improve

• They don’t get intimidated by their targets

• They try to be a positive force of change

• They produce work they are proud of

• They don’t take no for an answer

• They question the status quo

• They look for data

• Follow intuition

“The intuitive mind is a sacred gift, and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift”
