The Problem
580 MILLION entrepreneurs are dreaming of being the next unicorn with their mind-blowing ideas. Unfortunately, not everyone survives, 90% of startups failing. There are obviously many reasons, but did you know “not having a right team” is one of the top 3 reasons they fail?
During an in-depth interview with Michelle, a CEO of an AI-based startup in South Korea, I asked her about the struggles of starting her own business. She talked about how and why it took such a long time to find the right people at the right time.
The team dynamic is one of the critical factors of a “successful“ startup. Being in a startup is not going to be all rainbows and sunshine. You need a strong team that supports each other, drive the company forward through all the obstacles.
One of the top 3 reasons for startups to fail is because it's just 'not the right team'
