I worked at a startup that had a GOAT level sales person. We understood we needed this person to succeed, enterprise sales to a nascent market segment required a lot of persuasion and tenacity. Unfortunately, sales dominated orgs lead to terrible technical and operational challenges. (Whereas Neumann's efforts are dominated by fund raising.) Like our sales GOAT, I imagine Neumann is similarly unfamiliar with objective reality. And otherwise unteachable. I kinda get it. For Neumann's part, he's wildly successful, awash in cash. And has somehow avoided the consequences of his terrible decisions. Another example of Failing Upwards.
