Most successful founders I know primarily focus on the product and its users. That’s it. Long after many think they should. They come in all shapes and sizes, but they truly care about what they’re building. Some are bad at management (especially the younger ones), relying on vision and traction to sell new hires. Some are bad at sales, but they don’t let that stop them from becoming the #1 salesperson for their product. Most have a team spirit and would do the dirty job that nobody else on the team would do, even if that means cleaning the metaphorical (or real) floor. Almost all are incredibly bright, quick to make decisions, and know when to lean on others. This isn’t to say some deliberation isn’t warranted, especially for large decisions, but most successful CEOs will have a framework for making those decisions — one that allows them to be both quick and effective.
