Now think about that when you decide that you know better or more than your web developer. If you made the right choice in hiring the developer, then listen to what he or she tells you. Never hire a developer who doesn’t want to talk to you first.

I am hearing from my project management team a bit of distrust in the technical capacity of our web development team. I think we suffer because of the distance and culture but the project management team takes every late delivery or small bug as evidence that the development team may not be capable. You need to dive in.

Founders have many things to think about and decisions to make, most of which need to be made on a dime. In addition to that, not all human help must be on site; there are plenty of freelancers and remote services that handle everything from accounting, website development, logistics, among other things.
