Our Founder’s Advice — Jeff Burkland on What He’s Learned Working with Startup Clients & Scaling His Own Company

Jeff Burkland, Founder and CEO of Burkland discusses his in-depth experience working with startups as a fractional CFO and as a founder himself.

It’s a very special 50th episode of Startup Success!

Jeff Burkland, Founder and CEO of Burkland joins the show to discuss his in-depth experience working with startups as a fractional CFO and as a founder himself. Jeff shares common mistakes he has seen startup founders make in his consulting work and shares areas that helped with success. As a founder, Jeff also shares how a company’s success and growth comes down to the core values the company has. Core values lay out the expectations of employees, how decisions, especially difficult ones can be made and how as your company grows, you learn to delegate your everyday responsibilities to those you bring in to scale with.

We discuss:

  • Learning and adjusting from mistakes as CEO
  • Success through core values and making difficult decisions
  • Accommodating your company’s scale with your responsibilities
  • Elevate/delegate – tying your ability to scale with the founder’s responsibilities
