Driven or drained? Scaling a company without burnout
There’s a lot of talk lately about hustle culture—glorifying long hours and non-stop work as the only path to success. That kind of mindset just doesn’t fly with me (or my team).
In this episode of The Art of Entrepreneurship, I’m sharing how we approach growth, motivation, and momentum without burning people out. I talk about how we’ve built a values-driven team at Accelity, from quarterly conversations that go beyond performance reviews to the ways we recognize wins, share praise, and make learning part of the culture.
If you’re trying to grow your team without grinding them down, this episode is for you. There’s a better way to build, and it starts with how you lead.
