As a company grows, maintaining effective communication across teams becomes essential to ensure that everyone understands the trade-offs and impacts of their work on the overall system.

In early-stage companies, communication is straightforward because everyone is in the same room, but as you grow, you need to establish a complete dialogue to keep everyone aligned.

It's important to respect the boundaries between design and product management roles to ensure effective collaboration.

To maintain alignment in a rapidly scaling company, it's important to have codified documents and smart communication practices that ensure everyone is informed.

We encourage team members to engage with different functions to foster mutual respect and understanding of each other's challenges.

Writing down how and why things are done in the company is essential for maintaining clarity and consistency as the team grows.

The transition from a small team to a larger organization requires formal communication and explicit strategies to ensure alignment and clarity.

It's important for teams to understand the accomplishments of other departments to foster respect and collaboration.

Alignment is key to maintaining productivity in a growing company. If everyone is not on the same page regarding priorities, productivity suffers. A clear roadmap and goals for the next few months or year are essential for keeping the team aligned.
