Other really important people cadences are around key hires, the top five hires, right?

really important every week to understand in the organization.

Are you moving on those top hires as you scale?

And then product, from a product perspective, looking at the roadmap and then also really tracking the key KPIs that you're trying to drive in terms of what that product strategy is, in terms of each of those key business metrics that it's supposed to drive, and ultimately, does it result in that over time?

So you see an example here of how we track that and how we look at that over time.

And then running the month, right?

So you kind of get a view of every single week, the rhythm of the business, the cadence of how it's running, and then also where you're building the business.

And then every month, it's stepping back and looking at how each part of the business, taking a step back and looking at the overall business and how that's running, right?

And so...

The monthly operating metrics are a little bit different.

There, you're looking at the overall key SaaS metrics, right?

Your ARR, your contribution margin, your LTV to CAC, LTV to CAC by segment, understanding the trends of those over time.

The unit economics of the business are very important at scale and understanding

how that's shifting because as different market shifts are occurring, as productivity changes across your organization, it's very important to understand that over time.

So this is a great way that I've found for us to really understand that and trend that over time.

And ultimately, it's very important to get this, just like that Monday meeting is about sort of driving the business,

sort of week to week in terms of running, the monthly cadence allows you to drive executive accountability on what they're delivering against the business model, right?

Ultimately that's about stepping back and understanding the alignment to the business model that you're driving.

And then the last thing I'd say is also a sustaining cadence, right?

Like I mentioned at the beginning, to build a company at scale, what I found is over a decade, it's a long time.
