It's deciding which ones deserve your attention.\n\nIn this episode, Grant Siders, founder and CEO of Helia, shares how founders can stay focused as companies grow, funding arrives, and priorities multiply. He explains why raising capital doesn't remove constraints, it changes them, and why great leaders learn to separate what's existential from what's simply distracting.\n\nThe conversation explores prioritization, operating cadence, hiring, company culture, and the systems that help organizations stay aligned when plans inevitably change.\n\n\nChapters\n03:54 Grant Siders: Background and Helia's Mission\n08:01 Understanding Healthcare Procurement Challenges\n12:32 The Financial Implications of Medical Device Procurement\n17:44 Prioritizing Focus and Decision-Making in Startups\n21:41 Driving Enterprise Value in Healthcare Networks\n24:00 Navigating Early Sales Cycles and Market Education\n26:04 Data-Driven Decisions in Healthcare\n27:55 Operational Cadence and Strategic Clarity\n34:01 Building a Culture of Accountability\n38:56 Adapting to Change and Future Growth\n\n\nReferences in the Show:\nhttps://startupgrowthhacking.substack.com/p/the-first-90-days-post-funding-where \n \nhttps://hbr.org/2026/01/the-risks-of-prioritizing-short-term-revenue-over-customer-fit \n\nQuote of the Show:\n“Early on, I thought prioritization was making a list, right? Like, I'm a list guy. I got one right here next to me. I make one every morning. Everything feels important, but it's not. I think over time I realized prioritization was about identifying the constraints, and what's a single thing today limiting the business right now? That's where I would shift my focus and then mobilize the team, the org, and the leadership around that.” - Grant Siders\n\nWays to Tune In:\nSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5GpM8myxsUinc5bfLIbjJz?si=0af576adfb8e49f8 \nApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-cheat-code/id1692445190 ...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/AoPG3flkss3fsfc-m7ywyJ39XTunoIaKRubQ7PAkerg/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9lNWVl/YWZiNDRlMGVlYjVi/MmE4MzhjNWQ1ZWMz/NDZmMC5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
