Chairman's Perspective

Brad Rickelman

Meridian Technology Center

An issue which bedevils all startups as they grow is how to bring the right new employees into the business to sustain that growth. The founding team does not have to ask what the company is all about – but new employees do. And often an entrepreneur has a difficult time elaborating what she needs from those employees.
