Sam Altman’s
Take on Why
Scaling Often
Fails for
Startup CEOs
|
|
|
|
Are You
Retaining Your
Top Talent
Effectively?
|
|
Scaling a startup
is exciting, but
are you focusing
enough on keeping
your best people?
According to Sam
Altman, many CEOs
make a critical
mistake: they put
all their energy
into hiring early
on but neglect
retaining top
talent as the
company
grows.
|
|
Here’s what you
can do to ensure
your top
performers
stay:
|
|
1️⃣ Spend
One-on-One Time
with Key
Players Your top 5-10
team members want
personal time with
you. Schedule
monthly one-on-one
dinners or
meetings. These
moments build
trust, strengthen
relationships, and
make them feel
valued.
|
|
2️⃣ Give Them New
Challenges Top talent
thrives on growth.
Offer them
increasing
responsibilities
every year to keep
them engaged and
excited about
their work.
|
|
3️⃣ Stay Ahead on
Compensation Proactively
adjust their pay
and benefits to
reflect their
contribution.
Don’t wait for
them to ask — show
that you value
them.
|
|
Retaining talent
isn’t just good
leadership; it’s
your competitive
edge.

Sam
Altman
shares
the
biggest
mistake
startup
CEOs
make
when
scaling:
focusing
too
much
on
recruiting
and
not
enough
on
retaining
top
talent.
His
advice:
1️⃣
Spend
1-on-1
time
with
your
best
people
2️⃣
Give
them
more
responsibility
3️⃣
Proactively
re-up
their
compensation…
