How One Founder Adapted His Role to Scale His Company

from HBR On Leadership

Fabricio Bloisi was just 21 years old when he founded Movile as a small start-up in a garage, in the late 1990s. The company is now a global technology player, serving more than more than 150 million mobile customers worldwide. But Harvard Business School professor emeritus Lynda Applegate says that to scale the company successfully, Bloisi had to evolve his leadership away from day-to-day operations. In this episode, you’ll learn how Bloisi’s role as founder and CEO changed as the company grew. Key to this growth was Movile’s executive team, who managed operations so that Bloisi could focus on the company’s strategy.
