Founders: please take proper holiday this August.
It's been a brutal 18 months for most early stage companies - the goalposts for funding have completely moved (unless you happen to be building an LLM), B2B and B2C founders are up against a cost-of-living crisis, rising inflation, cost-cutting - all impacting your teams, your customers and you.
August is a good time to take two weeks off and encourage your senior team members to as well. You will find the wider team steps up and feels empowered and you come back more creative, rested and refreshed.
