Top Skills Entrepreneurs Need at Each Stage
Top Skills Entrepreneurs Need at Each Stage
You don’t need every skill right now—you need the right skill for the stage you’re in. In this episode, I map the journey from Founder → Farmer → Tinker → Chief and show you the two keystone skills that unlock growth at each step, plus quick drills you can run this week.
Founder: It’s you against friction. The superpowers are resilience and work ethic.
Farmer: Consistency beats heroics. Here the wins come from focus and a practice mindset.
Tinker: Your machine runs; now you protect attention and capital. The keys are an investor mindset and patience—delegating <$100/hr work, measuring Effective Hourly Rate, testing small, and only scaling what beats baseline.
Chief: At scale, outcomes are powered by people. Become a connector who goes first—over-introducing, sharing platform, and compounding goodwill.
