In a business world obsessed with faster growth and bigger targets, how do founders scale without breaking the business, the team, or themselves?

In this episode of Founders At Work, Jason Goldberg sits down with Muhammad Simjee, co-founder and CEO of A2D24, to explore the discipline of responsible growth. From hard-earned lessons on ambition and burnout to the opportunities and risks of AI, Muhammad shares a thoughtful perspective on building resilient businesses that can thrive over the long term.

Together, they unpack why sustainable growth beats reckless growth, how founders can avoid the trap of “thin leadership” in the age of AI, and why the real job of leadership is preserving judgment while increasing leverage.

A candid conversation about ambition, stewardship, and scaling with intention.
