Leila Hormozi: 我认为很多人追求的是在快速增长公司中的地位和名声，而不是真正承担随之而来的责任。他们渴望拥有公司的光环，却不愿面对快速发展带来的混乱、压力和不确定性。快速增长并非一帆风顺，它常常伴随着资源不足、问题堆积、系统不完善以及领导者自身也在不断学习和成长。在这种环境下，员工需要高度的自主性和解决问题的能力，而不是依赖他人的指导。作为领导者，我认为有责任告知大家快速增长公司的阴暗面，帮助他们做出明智的选择。 Leila Hormozi: 快速增长的公司也蕴藏着巨大的机遇。它能吸引优秀人才和关注，为业务发展创造更多机会。在快速增长的环境中，员工可以获得更多挑战和晋升机会，职业生涯得以快速发展。当然，快速增长也意味着更高的风险和压力。创始人需要不断做出决策，建立基础设施，并应对各种突发情况。因此，快速增长的公司并非适合所有人。它需要那些渴望挑战、适应性强、能够在模糊环境中工作的人。如果你重视稳定和平衡，那么快速增长的公司可能并不适合你。重要的是，要充分了解快速增长公司的真实情况，并根据自身情况做出选择。 Leila Hormozi: 我经常告诉我的团队，我们不需要成千上万的人，只需要少数精英。这些人渴望挑战，不惧怕困难，能够在压力下工作。作为创始人，我希望找到那些真正热爱这份事业，愿意为之付出努力的人。我希望帮助他们成长，并为他们提供实现梦想的舞台。当然，我也希望他们能够理解，成功并非一蹴而就，它需要付出艰辛的努力和不懈的坚持。最终，我希望每个人都能找到适合自己的道路，并在这个过程中实现自我价值。
