Summary

Matt Mochary presents operating practices for founders becoming company leaders. The book addresses accountability, communication, feedback and problem-solving. Its author-linked online manuscript also covers meetings, hiring, fundraising and sales. That manuscript can change; it should be distinguished from the 2019 printed book, whose contributor credits include Alex MacCaw and Misha Talavera.

Why read it Our view

Use the explicit accountability, feedback, meetings, hiring and fundraising practices to examine how a growing startup runs. The online manuscript is a living version and is not identical to the printed edition.
