Thanks for this link. A solid quick read for anyone who has gone through stressful startup (or similar) work experiences.
I changed roles a bit ago and had to spend some time thinking through the battle scars situation that Rands calls out. It's definitely a bias to be aware of when moving on from a volatile, scar-inducing period to something new. I've repeatedly caught myself thinking don't want to do that again but sometimes doing that again is a phase of growth that still needs to occur for a new company or product. Not everything can be skipped because you're wiser this time around and I've had to work to navigate insight from having been there before vs. holding back the team due to baggage.
The new volatiles callout is great too as these teammates frequently need to experience the situations and see the cookie crumble before they can internalize and truly believe the tips others tell them.
