Founder Dynamics

When a business scales, the leadership relationship is tested.

What worked when you were small doesn’t always work at scale.
Decision-making slows. Tension builds. Roles blur. Communication tightens.

The pressure isn’t just operational. It’s relational.

I work with co-founders and senior leadership partnerships to understand how they are wired to lead, decide and communicate — so growth strengthens the business instead of straining it.

Scaling amplifies difference.

Founders often lead very differently.

One moves fast.
One needs clarity before acting.
One pushes for expansion.
One protects sustainability.

Under pressure, those differences can start to feel like conflict.

It’s rarely about competence.
It’s about wiring.

Why this work matters

When founder dynamics are aligned:

• Decisions move faster
• Tension reduces
• Ownership is clearer
• The team feels stability
• Growth becomes sustainable

When they’re not, even a strong business starts to feel heavy.

What this work does

Using applied Human Design in a business context, we:

• Map how each leader is designed to make decisions
• Clarify strengths and pressure points
• Surface misalignment in communication styles
• Redefine roles as the company grows
• Build shared decision frameworks

This isn’t therapy.
It’s structural clarity.

If you’re navigating growth and feeling the strain at leadership level, let’s explore it.

A conversation is the best way to understand what’s happening and whether this work is the right fit for you.

How I work

Founder dynamics work typically includes:

• Joint strategy sessions
• Individual leadership profiles
• Decision-making calibration
• Communication and conflict mapping
• Ongoing advisory as you scale
