Grow Grow Grow Your Boat - Why and How to Grow

jannekalliola

Growing your company is actually pretty easy - you hire more people. But to grow while keeping customers, staff, and owners satisfied - simultaneously - is way harder.

The key to good growth is hiring only good people, avoiding mediocrity, and growing the knowledge of the team with each and every project. The session discusses how to create, grow, and develop a Drupal organisation and to keep your business afloat.

The main emphasis is on a) acquiring and maintaining talented individuals and focusing their energy on a common goal, b) creating right kind of culture, and c) producing value that customers are willing to pay for. The session does not require any deeper knowledge of running a company, so it can be enjoyed by total beginners. Of course, should you been running a Drupal shop for a couple of years, you can relate to the topics much more.

During the session you will learn how to define, create and maintain the right culture for growing, understand what kind of people to hire to boost your growth, and how to benefit from Drupal's vibrant community.
