248: The HR Skills That Separate Strategic Leaders From the Rest | Nahed Khairallah

Nahed Khairallah, global HR strategist, entrepreneur, and founder of Organized Chaos, breaks down why scaling companies stall—not because of their product, but because of people problems. In this episode, host Damon Lembi and Nahed explore how founders can remove themselves as bottlenecks, build HR as a true business driver, and turn people operations into the backbone of organizational growth.

Key Leadership Lessons from Nahed Khairallah’s Journey:

  • Founders often slow their own growth—until they learn to delegate with structure and clarity.

  • The most expensive mistake in scaling is hiring without a plan, process, or organizational design.

  • HR becomes a competitive advantage when it shifts from compliance to strategic impact, enabling leaders to work on the business—not in it.
