Headline was a tongue-in-cheek. If you read between the lines, I'm a co-founder in a small startup with two guys, and I've no intentions to become a bigco manager. Unless our company grows to >1000 employees (unlikely) and I for some reason want to stay in the helm (as unlikely). However, as an armchair sociologist (aren't we all? ;-)) I think it's still very interesting to study how bigcos are organized, and is there solutions to growing pains once you go past a few thousand employees. I personally believe that in the end of the day, you need to have quite similar skill set to run a startup with 50 employees as you need to run a company with 5000 employees. It's about leadership and inspiration, understanding the problems in all levels of work.
