Building Scalable Operational Systems
How operators design systems that scale without becoming the bottleneck.
Startups thrive on speed until their systems can't keep up. What once worked with five people in one room starts to crack under team growth, cross-border ops, or a messy product launch.
This session is for the operator holding the process together with duct tape and Google Sheets, who knows something has to change but can't afford to slow down.
You’ll learn how to spot where your systems are really breaking, redesign workflows under pressure, and make operational choices that support scale and velocity.
Through a real-world case of broken ops, you’ll practice diagnosing friction, proposing system fixes, and navigating tradeoffs between structure and speed.
🔧 You’ll walk away with:
A practical lens for identifying invisible drag in your current workflows
Tools to simplify processes without losing control
A method for redesigning ops systems that people actually adopt
Clarity on what to fix now — and what to leave messy (on purpose)
🎯 About the Series
Startups don’t scale on great ideas alone. They scale on great execution. And behind that execution are operators.
Each session in the Strategy & Operations Masterclass Series is a 90-minute deep dive into a real challenge startup operators face, from aligning execs to managing trade-offs to scaling messy systems.
