At the Forefront of Next-Gen Leadership
According to best-selling author and Harvard Business School Professor Noam Wasserman, 65% of high-potential startups fail due to conflict and poor communication among co-founders (The Founder’s Dilemma). It’s a daunting statistic, but not surprising given how many start-up leaders lack the experience of leading teams, managing conflict, and making tough decisions. While operating under a lot of pressure, these issues can be overwhelming for founders with tons of competing priorities. Many companies who lack support flame out fast, severely hampering innovation in a world that desperately needs it.
