如何创建一家改变世界的公司？

    《财富》杂志：你犯过的最大错误是什么？

    布斯克：我没有犯过“最大的错误”，那些错误只是一些选择，这些选择让我学到了最多。团队建设和招聘是建立一家公司最复杂的部分。我很赞同沃顿商学院教授亚当•格兰特的观点，他也是《给予与索取》（Give and Take）这本书的作者。他提出了一套更科学的系统，可以帮助在内心仍将自己当作工程师的我，找到最合适的员工。但没有一种系统是完美的，在我个人的招聘系统中，将“文化契合度”作为一个关键因素进行优先考虑，变得日益重要。作为创始人兼CEO，调整团队很有必要，而迅速决策对于保持团队的完整性至关重要。

    《财富》杂志：如果要再创建一家公司，有哪件事情是你不会去做的？

    布斯克：你创立的公司，从某种程度上来说，就像是你的孩子。但最终，你需要调整心态，接受其他聪明人的帮助，让公司发展。寻找与你一样对产品充满信心的合伙人甚至联合创始人，将是一个重要的步骤，最终能帮助你的公司实现最大的潜力。这些人应该能补充你能力上的不足，并且是值得信赖的核心骨干，彼此之间也能交流想法。

    《财富》杂志：你会给未来的创业者什么建议？

    布斯克：找一位能够帮你的导师，因为你不能凡事都靠自己。斯科特•格里菲斯[注:时任租车公司Zipcar的CEO]是我创立TaskRabbit之后最早的几位导师之一。我离开波士顿之后，他在Zipcar为我提供了一个办公场所，随后又将我介绍给了未来的投资者。现在，我们还是会对许多想法产生共鸣，我们会从彼此在公司发展过程中所犯的错误中总结经验教训。

    《财富》杂志：TaskRabbit的下一步将走向何方？我们今年能够对TaskRabbit有哪些期待？

    布斯克：对于TaskRabbit来说，2015年将是激动人心的一年。我们的市场将扩展到英国和欧洲部分地区。多家重量级商业合作伙伴的加入，也将把我们的业务规模推至新的高度。（财富中文网）

    Fortune: What’s been your biggest mistake?

    Busque: There is not one “biggest mistake” I’ve made, only choices where I’ve learned the most. Team building and hiring can be one of the most complicated parts of founding a company. I enjoy the perspective of Adam Grant, Wharton Business School professor and author of Give and Take. He has identified a more scientific system for finding the perfect hire that appeals to the engineer in me. But no system is perfect, and prioritizing “culture-fit” as a key factor in my personal system for hiring has become increasingly important. As a founder and CEO, editing the team is necessary and making quick decisions is critical for the integrity of the team.

    Fortune: If you were to start another startup, what is the one thing you would not do?

    Busque: The business you found can more or less feel like your baby. But eventually, you need to be open to letting the business grow with the help of other brilliant people. Finding partners — even cofounders — that believe in the product as much as you do can be an important step to take in helping your business reach its fullest potential. These people should complement your skill set and function as a trusted cadre who can share ideas with each other.

    Fortune: What’s the one piece of advice you would give up and coming startups?

    Busque: Find your mentors because you can’t do it all on your own. Scott Griffith, [Editor’s note: then CEO of Zipcar] became one of my early mentors since founding TaskRabbit. He offered me desk space in the Zipcar office when I moved from Boston, and later introduced me to future investors. To this day, we are able to soundboard ideas off one another and learn from each other’s mistakes as each of our companies grow.

    Fortune: What’s next for TaskRabbit? What can we expect from TaskRabbit this year?

    Busque: 2015 is shaping up to be an exciting year for TaskRabbit. We’re going to expand into new markets across the United Kingdom and parts of Europe. Several significant business partnerships will also drive a new scale of activity across the marketplace.
