At his last company, Adam Berke went from being one of three people to one of seven hundred. It’s rare that someone gets to experience that scale of growth, and the lessons learned along the way are invaluable.

Some of those lessons inspired Adam’s current company, WorkPatterns, a tech startup that offers a simplified people management app to help managers organize, motivate, and engage their teams.

On this edition of Founders Journey, Adam discusses what he realized was missing from how we manage teams, and why the best way to get your business started is hand to hand combat.
