As for the rest, we have as many psychologists in house as we have software engineers, if that speaks for anything. Also after building our startup for 4 years now, we have definitely been through the grind (still going through it), and don’t push stuff that we wouldn’t use ourselves.
In any case, one of the things we try to achieve with our app is to help people in this situation: we have tips for resilience, self discovery and emotional intelligence that can help better handle this emotional rollercoaster.
It turns out that many people get pushed into leading a team a specific way (by their peers, mentors or lack thereof), instead of having the tools to find their own leadership style and learn how to grow it. That was one of the main motivations when we started working on the psychology of our app: we need to start by discovering people’s leadership style, and only then recommend content & tips that will help them on the journey
