Episode-linked context, not an unsupported claim of authorship.

Argue for the company-optimal allocation of your team even when it defunds you — and read the response.

A one-channel growth company is always a no-no — turn on the second channel while the first still works.

Get the CFO, the head of people and sales fingerprinted on product strategy before growth goes negative.

Projects die of exhausted stamina long before they die of exhausted money — so watch the team, not the runway.

Take the role that will hurt you into growth — but only if one or two things in it are already in your wheelhouse.

Pre-commit an explicit ranking of who you serve first, so thorny trade-offs resolve themselves.

Growth masks all problems — so ask what you'd do if growth went negative, before it does.
