The Early Team

Episode 5 - Harrison Johnson, Employee #1


Listen Later

Welcome to another conversation on The Early Team, where I speak with Harrison Johnson. Currently, Harrison is a co-founder at Driveway, a powerful tool that helps remote employees ramp up faster. However, the scope of our chat revolves around his time at Managed by Q, an office management platform, where he was employee #1.

In our conversation, we talk about:

  • The concept of house of cards and what failing fast means when you’re at an early stage company
  • How he had to learn to detach his passion for the company & his line of responsibilities, so that he could make better decisions and implement changes
  • And how chasing titles at a startup isn’t necessarily the best approach for your growth

This conversation was full of reflection and insight. Enjoy and let’s jump in.
