I stepped out of my second organization
00:00:02
that I founded because I felt that I was
00:00:03
there was founder syndrome. I was being
00:00:05
the constraint to growth after a point.
00:00:06
I mean 10 years we got to very big
00:00:08
scale. It wasn't my skill set. I really
00:00:11
enjoyed the more nimble entrepreneurial
00:00:12
days as well.
00:00:14
But I think often we need to give space
00:00:15
for others to think about where they
00:00:17
are. They're really at the right place
00:00:18
for their organization at this point.
00:00:20
But also what do they want to do next?
00:00:22
Often a lot of it's they get stuck
00:00:23
because they don't know what the next
00:00:24
step is. They can still have impact
00:00:26
influence in a different way. It could
00:00:27
be as an advisor. An investor for
00:00:30
example.
00:00:31
Um yeah, lots of other permutations
00:00:33
there as well. They could set up
00:00:34
something new in a new area. But helping
00:00:36
them feel positive and bring that energy
00:00:38
somewhere else. I found it is really
00:00:41
important for founders so they can
00:00:42
unlock something new and then they
00:00:44
really leave a strong legacy and
00:00:45
succession with their existing um
00:00:47
organization at the same time.
