#SpillTheTea on The Culture Playbook for Scale-ups
Every founder knows that culture isn't a soft skill—it's the foundation for successful scaling. But how do you build a single, solid culture when your team is rapidly growing and spread across multiple locations?
Join us for our next Spill The Tea session featuring Melissa Liu, Chief of Staff at Okra Solar. Melissa's role involves navigating the most complex, high-stakes aspects of hyper-growth, from managing a $7.85M Series A fundraise to scaling her team by 22 new hires since series A.
This session will be an honest look at the operational side of culture as a strategic tool for evolution and identity.
What We'll Unpack
Melissa will share the practical, real-world playbook she uses to build and manage a resilient company culture while constantly evolving:
Culture as Identity: Moving beyond a "perk," learn how Okra's culture is intrinsically linked to its mission—a unique energy that acts as a competitive advantage in every aspect of the business.
The Evolution Challenge: Upholding core values while the company evolves and rapidly expands into different geographical locations. How does location impact culture?
Recruitment & Scaling: The process of growing the team quickly while protecting the culture, including managing new compensation policies and performance reviews.
The Leadership Pipeline: Implementing effective training and development programs for team leads on management and culture.
