[S1 E9] Suresh Vaghjiani // How to build high-performing teams

The next episode of RogueCast features FinTech Advisor, Suresh Vaghjiani discussing the important topic of “How to build high-performing teams”. He starts off by explaining that his motivation for doing what he does is to “push the boundaries on things that have never been done before” and this demonstrated by his extensive experience of developing teams from startup and scale-up level to large corporations. Suresh goes on to express how important it is to have people in your team that challenge the way things are done and that can offer a fresh perspective often outside of the industry that you’re trying to disrupt. By doing this and “hiring people that are better than you” it becomes possible to stretch the limits of your fields. One challenge of Suresh’s teams has been that “as the company grows, Founders often talk less to each other” and this communication is an important component of a high-performing team. He also expresses how key it is to understand what makes your team happy and put them in positions where they can thrive in line with their core values. The finale to the podcast sees Suresh reflect on a situation of conflict with a colleague and goes on to explain how “making other people feel like your ideas are also their own will help the business to be successful”.
