Sean Sheppard of GrowthX on the importance of “Stage Fit” in SaaS growth

Episode Outline

[04:39] Sean’s background

[07:16] Operational issues and then the other one had to do with just the fundamental shift

[10:13] Reason these companies were failing, had more to do with people and the behaviors of the people

[11:18] Realize that affiliation with a company who's been successful in that industry

[12:04] Hiring and supporting and developing and growing other humans

[14:34] If you think about things from a red, yellow, green perspective, you put people in a stoplight bucket

[16:35] Best fit based on their characteristics and attributes because the majority of the Academy students are adult learners. The true character of a person is not how you act in this life, but how you react.

[17:04] If you don't like something, you already know it. It's probably not going to continue to enjoy it.

[19:22] There's social responsibility, corporate responsibility, environmental responsibility, and personal responsibility.

[20:19] Starting over with the concept of what problems do my customers have right now that can really solve, and growth mindset is going to be more important.
