I think Jack Dorsey (and now Justin Kan) are pretty good examples, too. Why are you excluding those two?

- staunch 15y agoBecause neither has proven that it can work yet. I can think of multiple counter-examples as well. People who are trying to run multiple organizations and doing rather poorly (as judged by results). I wouldn't want to single them out publicly though. Besides, it's rather difficult to judge the cause and effect for things like this.
- justin 15y agoI agree that it is hard to focus on multiple things. Certainly I am not "running" Justin.tv/TwitchTV by any means: my cofounder Emmett Shear is in every sense of it. I don't think I could have a day to day operational role at two companies. At JTV/TTV I focus on providing value by advising those people who are in operational roles.
- bradya 15y agoElon Musk of SpaceX and Tesla Motors is also a good example of a successful multitasking founder.
