Scaling CS without losing control
One of our podcast listeners asked,"As my team is growing, I feel like I'm losing touch with them and our customers. Any advice?"
This question cuts right to the heart of a dilemma many of us face when scaling: How do we grow without losing the control that (we think) has made us so effective to begin with?
In this week's episode of Impact Weekly, Johan and I tackle this head-on. We're not just scratching the surface; we're drilling down into the key areas that can make or break your scaling efforts:
- Cultivating a Sustainable Culture
- Optimizing Management Metrics
- Transitioning to a Coaching Role
- And much more!

BTW: I hope you can join me for Impact Day in Stockholm, Sweden on 14-Sept.
And if you say, "that's too far to travel for a CS event, Lincoln" just remember, I'm going there all the way from Texas in the United States.
At the event I'll be giving a keynote as well as running a few workshops, but there are a lot of things going on and a ton of great people to network with, so check out the full agenda to see for yourself.
I truly believe Impact Day isn't just the best CS event in the Nordics; it's the best CS event in the world.

TL;DR: We're running "Save Customers Now!" workshops again—PLG on April 15 and Enterprise on April 17. Stop churn immediately in Q2. I just got this email from a CS leader: "Lincoln, I'm freaking out. With everything going on—economic uncertainty, customers tightening budgets, chaos everywhere—churn is gonna hit us HARD in Q2. Are you doing another 'Save Customers' workshop soon? Fingers crossed." Bad news: I've heard similar messages from several CS leaders already. Good news: "Save...
