When your company is scaling rapidly due to product market fit, one of the biggest impediments (or boosters) to growth will turn out to be the composition of your executive team. If your executives are not able to scale with the company, entire functions may be thrown into disarray and your adoption or revenue may stop scaling. You will also fall into a mode as founder of constantly putting out fires or covering for your executives, when in reality executives exist to give you more bandwidth to do more as a company and as a CEO.
