Founders around the room had all experienced it: someone who looked great on paper, interviewed well and then struggled once the pace and ambiguity of startup life kicked in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">Several founders had responded by ditching CVs and interviews almost entirely in favour of testing candidates in real conditions. Leaders in the room emphasised the value of live working sessions and placing candidates directly into real product discussions with existing team members to observe how they communicated, asked questions and handled uncertainty. Technical ability mattered less than how people thought and whether they naturally oriented toward outcomes, rather than just tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Culture fit matters, but so does knowing what your business actually needs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">There was an honest conversation about the risk of &#8220;vibe checks&#8221; quietly filtering out people who could bring genuinely valuable alternative perspectives. Cohesive teams are worth building but teams that all think the same way tend to stop challenging each other in the ways that matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/06\/3eb8a7e19a2a8c74900eabc3c0d96a1f-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"A group of people seated around a U-shaped table in a conference room, engaging in discussion.

Some businesses had built polished internal processes to appear more mature or organised, only to find those same processes slowing them down six months later. Others had grown so quickly that systems couldn&#8217;t keep up and had to be thrown out and rebuilt from scratch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">The recurring theme the room kept returning to was straightforward: done is better than perfect. Startups often overcomplicate documentation, approvals and systems when speed and iteration are far more valuable. The businesses navigating growth well were the ones willing to build what they needed now, rather than what they imagined they might need later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AI is already embedded in how these businesses run<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">Most businesses in the room were already using AI but the conversation that generated the most energy wasn&#8217;t about which tools people had adopted. It was about where founders were actively choosing not to rely on them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">Several leaders said they now ask candidates specifically where they chose human judgement over automation during hiring assessments, because that reveals far more about critical thinking than a polished AI-assisted submission does.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">The concern across the room wasn&#8217;t really about AI replacing jobs in the near term. It was about how it will reshape what organisations look like and what they expect from people over the next few years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/06\/20d284dc5643b7373fee989c92f59d26-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"A woman stands presenting in a well-lit conference room with an engaged audience seated around U-shaped tables.

Scaling from a 100-person office-based business to a fully remote global organisation during COVID opened up access to incredible talent but it also gradually changed how the business operated. People hired from structured corporate environments unintentionally brought those habits with them. Decisions slowed, processes multiplied and eventually the business had to consciously rebuild aspects of the culture that had originally made it work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">It was a candid moment that clearly connected with a room full of founders navigating their own versions of the same challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">The strongest takeaway from the day wasn&#8217;t a tactic or a framework.
