Amateur hour: first time CEO, meets first time co-founder meets first time finance leader meets first time everyone and everything. Mix it all together, and you get Kira. There's no playbook nor first hand experience across 'leadership' team, and decisions made are rash and done without any logic or reasoning. Paranoia runs deep and strong as competitors are beating them at their own game, and have a better product and overall value proposition. Amateurs get in their own way. Seasoned leaders understand their strengths and limitations, and ultimately seek and build expertise that compliments them while amateurs view outside expertise as a threat and risk. Kira is a clear case study in the latter. Interview at your own peril.
