Getting St*ff Done - Why Lean is Best

Marketplace Risk Platform Podcast

Show Notes

All too often platforms focus on VC investment to drive hyper-growth, which usually leads to bloated organizations (and in recent times, layoffs). But what if platforms focused on running a lean organization, with more utility players who could function as 'jacks-and-jills-of-all-trades?' The result would create a solid foundation that enables growth, but also stability and flexibility. In this episode, Clutch VP of Marketplace Strategy Ryan Stevens talks about bootstrapping a company to growth, while achieving great metrics and a culture based on lean principles.
