Blinkist is now globally known, has been profitable since last year, and seems at first glance to have been a stroke of genius. Behind it, however, is a process of many years that the founders have thought out and followed.

They also built their company based on holacracy. What are the pros and cons of scaling with flat hierarchies?

What you learn:

Why is it good if "the one idea" needs a little more time to mature?
What challenges do pretty much all founders face along the way & how can you prepare for them?
Why can brainstorming with like-minded people be elementarily important for your founding success?
How can you approach the topic of recruiting in a structured way & what should you definitely keep in mind?
