Brown delivers an illuminating and accessible guide to maximizing your impact and delivering results in a startup leadership role. The author draws on over a decade of experience scaling SaaS companies as she explains how to prepare for, earn, and succeed in an executive role at a startup company.

The book describes every step on the way to realizing your goals--and the goals of your startup--as you navigate the gap between a management role and the executive team. It covers what to do in your first 90 days, how to build and sustain a healthy team culture, and the art of communicating results to your leadership team and board. You'll also learn:
* How to manage the challenges posed by leading a remote, distributed, or hybrid team

* Effective ways to level up your skills and stay current as your company grows
