Glenn Solomon(@glennsolomon):On the SaaStr stage 8 years ago, I asked @mitchellh & @armon what they'd do differently building @HashiCorp. They said they wished they'd brought in a seasoned exec team 6 months earlier than they did. I've repeated this advice many times since. An exec search can stretch quarters, don't let the clock start when you're already feeling the pain.
