Our company had to grow from 250 people to 600+ in a matter of a year to just keep up with the demands of a 700% revenue growth rate. To keep pace with our company’s hypergrowth, we started to rapidly hire (and still continue to do so) individual contributors (IC), managers of ICs (M1), managers of managers (M2), and managers of managers of managers (M3). We created our own curriculum to develop ICs into management and also train those who are joining us from manager positions externally.

Every division in our company is hiring managers: HR, Sales, Customer Operations, Engineering, and more. If you’re interested, take a look through our job postings and apply for them on our job board.

If you’re looking for quick ideas & supporting reading that you can apply immediately with high impact, we recommend the following short essays selected from our library:

As a shorthand, we’ll use M2 to denote a manager of managers. (Internally, M1 means level one manager of individual contributors, M3 means a level three manager of managers of managers, etc).

Folks have asked us what our overarching management framework is, and the answer is that we have (and are simultaneously developing) several frameworks[2]. The one we have right now that’s developed enough for external consumption is The Triangle of Management, but we expect there will be more over time.
