EPAM

What happens when your organization scales significantly and at a rapid pace? It's certainly a great problem to have, but facets of the business are bound to face change. How does the culture of a team change when scaling? What processes are necessary now that weren't before? How might leadership styles and business strategies evolve with such growth?

Moderated by EPAM, this panel brings together experts from Iron Galaxy and Epic Games to share their experiences and different perspectives.

Takeaway

This discussion will help uncover how changes in company and team size due to growth impact organizations, allowing leaders to be prepared and remain proactive through the process. This includes helping leaders by offering best practices for managing that change in size, especially around preserving the culture of the organization.

Intended Audience
