For sure. It’s not a black and white topic. This is an interesting topic for me as I find myself asking similar questions about my role at a company I founded. I founded a company currently valued in the low-mid 8 digits. I successfully brought the company through an acquisition and have doubled revenues since. I keep coming back to an article I read on HN years ago talking about the 4 types of CEOs: founder, growth, maintenance, death (bankruptcy). While I’ve found success in 1 and 2, I don’t enjoy 2 as much as 1 and I don’t think I’d be any good at 3 or 4. I’m probably experiencing a form of imposter syndrome as the board & leadership are all satisfied with my performance, but the thoughts still linger.
