Founders · Early leadership teams · Investors
On a small team, one poor fit shows up in the numbers fast. Every option on this page is built for founders who would rather align the team they have than replace the people on that team.
Turnover on a small team is the expensive problem
Imagine you hired a head of sales six months ago. The skills checked out. The forecast still arrives late, and every planning meeting ends in the same standoff. The skill gap is rarely the issue. Nobody on the team can predict how the new person makes decisions, and the new person cannot read how you make yours. Everything DiSC® gives both sides plain language for that gap while the hire can still be saved.
People rarely resign over one argument
More often, people resign after a year of small frictions nobody named out loud, and the exit interview says “not the right fit.” Naming working styles early moves the role-fit conversation to a point where you can still change the outcome — a better-defined role, a different reporting line, or a clearer way of working together.
Investors cannot audit culture from a data room
Team risk is one of the hardest lines in a diligence memo to evidence. A leadership team that can describe how its members work together, and show what the team is doing about the friction, presents a managed risk rather than a blank space. Symphony 100 works with founders and with the investors who back them, so the conversation covers both sides of the table.
Most founders start here
Self-paced, eight modules, applied to your own team as you work through each one. Built for the stage where the team is too small to absorb a bad quarter.
See the courseOne assessment and one profile per person, on a platform that stays open after the workshop. The next time two people need to work something out, the colleague comparison is already there.
See the experiencesFor the leadership team as one unit — trust, conflict, commitment, accountability and results across the whole team, rather than how any two of you get along.
See The Five Behaviors®Three free downloads built for this stage: a business case template for investing in teamwork, a checklist for diagnosing team dynamics issues, and a teamwork effectiveness assessment. Take all three to your co-founders or your board before you spend anything.
See the free resources The Masterclass — live with FrankAsk yourself one question: are you fixing a specific friction on the team you have today, or building the habit before you scale? A specific friction calls for profiles and a workshop. The habit calls for the course. A discovery call with Frank settles the choice either way.
