Building a strong team
Steve Blank proposed a theoretical model for a startup team that includes founding members with the following core skills: visionary, hacker/hardware, hustler, designer.
- The visionary is “the person with the dream,” the one who has the inspiration and charisma to draw others to the idea.
- The hacker is the “expert” who makes the product or service.
- The hustler is usually someone who can manage everything from operations to sales.
- The designer is usually the UI/UX specialist, someone who can bridge the gap between the client, the consumer or audience, and the technology.
