🔴 LIVE in Nairobi — #SankalpFoundersTable: 𝐒𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠: 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 so far! Every founder hits a wall a pitch deck can't help with — the hiring calls, the systems, the culture that decides if a company holds together. Sankalp Founder's Table names that wall, one session at a time, with people who've already climbed it. Second in the series: what happens after the funding lands. Kiriinya Kithinji, Consulting Director at @WyldeInt, keeps coming back to one idea: talent alone doesn't scale a business, systems do. Founders, in his view, eventually have to stop doing the work themselves and start building what lets others do it. Roy Bore MSc, FCCA, CEO of @Health_X_Africa, picks up from there with the cost of getting hiring wrong — a bad hire doesn't just cost money, it costs time and momentum. His point: choose people who'll grow with the business, not just fill a seat. And Danilo Frison, Founder and Managing Director of Tafuta Associates, brings it back to the decision before the hire — do it to solve a real bottleneck, not to look like you're growing. Culture, in his view, keeps people around far longer than salary does. The room is going further — into hiring sequencing, budget tradeoffs, and what resilient teams actually look like across Africa. More on that soon. There's more from this room than one post can hold — stay close for what comes next. #SankalpFoundersTable #SankalpForum #AfricanStartups #StartupOperations #ImpactEntrepreneurship
