The hardest transition for most founders isn't building the product, it's learning how to build the team and systems around it. In this session, Genevieve Ryan Bellaire will help you think through your evolving role as a founder, who you need to hire and when, and how to use AI to streamline your operations so you're not the bottleneck for every decision.
Drawing from her experience building Realworld from an early idea into a platform trusted by 40+ universities and backed by investors including Bezos Expeditions, Genevieve will guide you through how to:
- Recognize when your role as founder needs to shift, and what to hand off first
- Identify the first few hires that actually move your business forward (and the ones that can wait)
- Use AI to streamline systems, operations, and team workflows without losing quality or control
- Keep your product and platform fundamentals sound while you're heads down on team and ops
After this session, you'll leave with a Founder Role & Team Roadmap you can use to plan your next 2-3 hires and identify where AI can take work off your plate right now.
ABOUT YOUR HOST
Genevieve Ryan Bellaire is the Founder and CEO of Realworld, a platform helping Gen Z navigate the milestones of early adulthood. A lawyer by training, Genevieve began her career at Goldman Sachs before founding Realworld to close the knowledge gap around personal finance, healthcare, and the everyday decisions no one teaches you how to make. She has a B.A. from Princeton and a J.D./M.B.A. from Georgetown, and has grown Realworld from an early insight into a platform trusted by tens of thousands of young adults and dozens of top universities, scaling her team and systems every step of the way.
