Unexpected catastrophes kill companies<\/i><\/br>"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

Startups are motivated by youthful energy, fueled by adrenaline, and supplemented by caffeine. The frenetic pace of a startup cannot be sustained forever. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a company remains a startup too long, it will either burn through its cash or the original team will become too long in the tooth to muster the same enthusiasm that powered its early victories. Or both. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Companies that successfully navigate the transition from a startup to a growth phase must reconsider their approach to \u201call hands on deck\u201d events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most prevalent all-consuming events for startups are potentially catastrophic, customer-affecting events, a.k.a fires. For example, when a startup\u2019s biggest, and possibly sole, customer phones the startup CEO in a rage to report their data has suddenly gone AWOL, there\u2019s no question that it\u2019s a four-alarm fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In real life, about 65% of the nation\u2019s fire departments are entirely or mostly composed of volunteers. These brave volunteers put their own lives aside when called to fight fires. Similarly, firefighters at startups have regular jobs that get tossed aside when it\u2019s time to douse the flames.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In real life, fires are mesmerizing events that attract neighbors who want to help. Similarly, those in a startup not directly responsible for extinguishing the fire often act in supporting roles until the crisis has passed. Startups typically employ an \u201cit takes a village\u201d approach to attacking crises and engage most, if not all, of their employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When a real fire has been reduced to smoking embers, there\u2019s an investigation to determine its cause. Hopefully, the investigation results will provide sufficient education to avoid similar fires. A startup performs the same sort of post-mortem <\/em>investigation for mostly the same reasons. Afterward, all of the participants go their separate ways, spend some time recovering, and restart their normal lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A company in a growth or later phase cannot afford to expend all of its resources on a single fire. Although a fire remains an important and potentially catastrophic event, larger companies have multiple customers, more responsibilities, and deadlines that can\u2019t be derailed. A growth company cannot afford to marshal the entire team to fight fires. However, it\u2019s exceedingly difficult to change this behavior for the following reasons, which also happen to represent the ingredients of fire:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Atmosphere<\/strong>\u200a\u2014\u200aActual fires require oxygen in the atmosphere. The atmosphere at a startup is all about heroics, and nothing illustrates it better than individuals saving the day. It\u2019s been well documented that a minority of firefighters become arsonists, possibly for the thrill of the blaze and the recognition of extinguishing it. Although company employees aren\u2019t intentionally wreaking havoc on their customers, the underlying culture may not encourage employees to avoid fires.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Fuel<\/strong>\u200a\u2014\u200aOne of the essential components of a fire is the presence of material that will burn. The technical debt accrued during a startup phase that isn\u2019t paid down is similar to a gasoline can; neither the technical debt nor the gasoline can spontaneously combust, but their absence will prevent fires.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Heat<\/strong>\u200a\u2014\u200aAlthough Oxygen and Fuel are two essential ingredients of fire, without a source of heat, there will be no fire. The most likely source of heat in a company fire is human error. The pressure to release software in complicated hosting configurations often results in Production surprises that didn\u2019t occur in pre-production environments.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Here\u2019s how a growth company contains its fires. The following list eliminates or reduces the elements that compose a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Culture<\/strong>\u200a\u2014\u200aUnlearning a culture of heroism is hard. However, if managers lead with cooler heads by assembling a small team and prohibiting all but essential employees from contributing, the fire can be contained and the entire company won\u2019t be derailed. The firefighting team must be multi-disciplinary to keep the company and affected customers informed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Prioritization<\/strong>\u200a\u2014\u200aEngineers know the risks of technical debt that isn\u2019t repaid. In the push for new features, the paydown of debt that yields no visible customer benefit often becomes low priority to those outside the engineering team. By establishing a matrix of relative evaluation that\u2019s scored with metrics, companies can absorb input from many stakeholders and more easily determine relative priorities. Removing technical debt is akin to starving a fire of its fuel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Process & Quality\u200a<\/strong>\u2014\u200aAs companies grow and releases become more complicated, automation becomes essential to reduce human error. In addition, although most startups test their software, few have employees who focus solely on quality; this becomes a key role in a growth company.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      It is unrealistic to expect that any plan will eliminate fires. Building some slack into schedules to account for unexpected events is more reasonable. However, following an intentional approach to reducing the components required for fire enables a company to meet its commitments without being derailed by emergencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
