Harry Stebbings: Building manager frustration as a signal of company growth
Building manager friction signals company momentum

Harry Stebbings suggests that one strong indicator of a company’s momentum is its impact on the building manager in its office space.

He observes that companies whose employees stay late, request additional office space, and frequently hold meetings often create friction with building managers. According to Stebbings, this level of operational intensity can be a hallmark of great companies.

Stebbings has previously profiled rapid company growth, noting ClickHouse’s expansion from open source roots to $200 million in annual revenue over four years in a recent report. In another article, he detailed how Sequoia became the first external investor in Citadel Securities through strategic relationship-building with key market players. His commentary often focuses on company momentum and the underlying dynamics that drive market success.
