How to Pick Partners, Recruit the Top Talent and Build a Company Culture

By: Ozan Dagdeviren

Narrated by: Matthew Cook

Start-ups can only grow with the right people decisions. This is an audiobook useful for managing the most complex variable in a startup's success.

The first part - How to Pick Partners - will discuss when it is best to go at it solo and when it is best to partner up; how to choose a co-founder; which indicators and warning signs to look for before making the handshake.

The second part - How to Recruit the Top Talent will tell about the most important principles of making the very first hires of the company. You will learn about all the stages of top level hiring, from the interview to drafting up an offer that will get a "yes".

The third part - How to Build a Culture - is based on the appreciation that as a company grows, culture becomes the main map of reference people use for their actions and decisions.

In this book, you will learn about the universal cultural codes start-ups need - actions, rituals, symbols, and stories and how to use them. You'll also get a culture-shaping toolbox!

Startups Grow with People makes good use of metaphors and real-life examples for clarity. You will find lists, action plans, and frameworks you can immediately start using in your own start-up.
