I think the most important thing a founder brings is to "not give up". The journey of most startups that innovate is complicated, unknown and unusual. Traditional management is not made for this. I have always felt that "pivot" comes from "founder mode" itself. It is one way of keep trying, even when a founder accepts that the original idea is not working well. Many founders have attempted and failed multiple times to finally get to something that works. This value is less visible in any other domain of management.
