Company mission

Our mission is to advance the craft of founder leadership, collectively. Founder leadership isn't what they teach you at Harvard Business School. It's a craft that's passed on from founder to founder. We exist to figure out and share the practices that work in order to give our clients a huge advantage. To put it in language our CEO clients use: "It feels like cheating."
