24six9 Riyadh Chapter: Founders Workshop
24six9 Riyadh Chapter presents Founders Workshop
Topic: Build the Founder Before the Company.
You've built the pitch deck, the product, maybe even the company or the next big thing in the world. But have you built the actual person running the whole thing? Yeah. Thought so.
This workshop is for everyone who's been so busy scaling the business that they forgot to check in with the human behind it. Because here's the plot twist nobody warns you about, when your personal mandate (why you actually started this) and your professional one (what the company demands at 11pm on a Tuesday) go to war, guess who loses? You do. Usually quietly. Usually while pretending it's fine.
This is a hands-on session about sorting that out before it sorts you out. Come figure out who you are as a founder, so the thing you're building actually looks like you, not just whatever the market happened to reward.
No fixing the company today. We're fixing the founder first.
