Kā zināt un iet savu ceļu darbā vai biznesā?

Vai jēdziens "sirds ceļš darbā” vispār eksistē, vai tas ir tikai skaists mīts?

✅ Sirds ceļš - mīts vai reāla iespēja?

Is your company’s growth capped by your own capacity?

At a certain stage, scaling stops being about "what" you do and becomes entirely about "how" you set up your internal engine.

If you feel like you're constantly putting out fires instead of executing your strategy, this Scalability Masterclass is for you.

Farhad Niyoz (CEO of Cocoon) and Martins Bicevskis (Professional Board Member) break down the "Scalability Puzzle" - the specific disconnects between Strategy, Execution, and Team that create friction and kill profitability.

In this video, you will learn:

• The Strategy Trap: Why most strategic plans detach from reality and how to fix the "buy-in" problem.

• Escaping Firefighting: How to move from reactive problem-solving to a steady execution rhythm.

• The Team Equation: How to spot C-level mis-hires and why "nice" CEOs often fail to scale.

• Practical Tools: A core team exercise you can run immediately to spot blockers.

About the Speakers:

Farhad Niyoz is the CEO of Cocoon, a mentor, and a former tech founder. He helps growth-stage CEOs build strong, aligned teams that execute autonomously, preventing the founder from becoming the bottleneck.

Martins Bicevskis is a professional supervisory board member and C-Suite advisor.​ He advises CEOs on scaling, org design, and high-stakes transitions pre- and post-IPO, drawing on experience leading teams in the hundreds.

Running a startup but can't get VCs interested? Struggling to keep co-founders aligned? Build IT's Matiss Neimanis breaks down why he's rejected promising startups, what happens when founders fight, and why sitting on two chairs (keeping your day job too long) usually kills the company. Managing 50+ early-stage investments taught him when to trust data versus gut feeling. Plus, he shares how getting seriously ill forced him to rethink managing both a VC fund and his personal life - without sacrificing either.

This is real talk for founders dealing with co-founder tensions, struggling with investor rejections, or trying to figure out when to quit their day jobs.

When studying to be a dentist, Sergejs parallelly became a sales person at a dental supplies company, which was way out of his comfort zone.
