In Formula 1, championships aren’t won by the fastest driver.
They’re won by the team behind them, the strategists, the engineers, the pit crew who can change four tyres in 2.0 seconds and get them back on track.
Running a business is no different.
A founder can build momentum through grit, instinct and speed. But to sustain that pace, and win the race, they need specialists working alongside them in sync:
CFO (Finance): monitors cash, burn rate and risk. Prevents misfires.
COO (Operations): ensures the operations is running efficiently and revenue converts into traction.
CMO (Marketing): reads the markets and positions for overtakes when competitors blink.
CPO (People/HR): keeps the team performing under pressure without burnout or blowouts.
None of them replace the driver.
But together they turn raw speed into repeatable victory. Most founders only realise this when they’ve already burned through tyres, fuel, cash and people.
If you’re still driving flat-out and doing your own repairs mid-race it might be time to bring in a pit crew.
