HR
Being a leader is rarely a breeze. There are times when it is easy, clearly, and others when the pressure is on to earn your corn. In moments like that, it is surprising that many do not simply throw the towel in and find a beach to lie on with a cocktail and a good book (preferably mine).

Unlike in the movies, mistakes happen. Many projects are launched with the best intentions and end up missing the mark. I remember being told a story about a young leader who tabled his resignation after a project went wrong, costing the organisation $2M. His boss smiled at the resignation letter on his desk and replied: “Why should I let you go, when I have just invested $2M in your education?”.

A strong employer brand is a powerful tool for talent attraction and retention which reduces hiring costs. It tells job seekers about your company’s mission, values and culture. As a result, companies with compelling employer branding are more likely to find individuals whose preferences match what the company offers from the outset, and thus are more likely to stick around as a result.

Founding a tech startup isn't an endeavour reserved for the “young”. While there might be famed stories of young Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg all beginning businesses at an early age, there are plenty of examples where founders turned their hand to beginning a tech start-up at a later stage in their career too.

Forget about the cliché of the swaggering leader who can do no wrong. We all have strengths and weaknesses, however committed we are to our purpose and driving our organisation forward to achieve our goals. We are, after all, human. Plus, if the disruptive ambition is substantial, we’d be a fool to try to go it alone. This means we need resources. Resources are the fuel that helps our fire burn.
