Founders need to 'fire' themselves every 3 to 6 months if they want their companies to grow, says the CEO of a startup disrupting the $1 trillion money-transfer industry

"To do that, we would need to really hit a massive scale and hundreds of team members," cofounder and CEO François Briod said in an interview with Business Insider. "We really want to be this global hub and have an impact on the lives of millions."To achieve that reach and process hundreds of billions of transactions, Briod said his team will need to exponentially scale up from its current baker's dozen employees and handful of partners.

"Part of the most rewarding element of the journey is adding new team members," Briod said. "There is a limit to what you can achieve with three founders."When François Briod and his brother Pascal were just children — 8 and 10 years old, respectively — they launched a nonprofit to provide meals for a children's center in Cameroon.

"When you can still sit around a table, everyone is aware of what everything is doing, it's super easy to collaborate," he said. But as more people join, "you need to find clever ways to keep engaged with the whole team."
