This is basically how family works. Every party should have a right to be 'right' in the agreed range of situations (my wife is always right in the house, no matter what).
So, the founders should split the territory and then follow to the agreement.
- chiffonade 18y agoWhat? This is the formula for building a marriage in which you resent your wife 10 years down the line, not any way to build a successful company.
- redrobot5050 18y agoOnly about 50% of marriages fail in 10 years. On the other hand, only about 45% of businesses make it past 5 years. I would argue that his strategy couldn't be any worse for beating the odds than anyone else's, contrary to what you might believe.
- chiffonade 18y ago> I would argue that his strategy couldn't be any worse for beating the odds than anyone else's You're trying to have a better strategy, not one that "isn't any worse". Sigh.
- redrobot5050 18y agoTouche. But my point that all strategies are equally likely to succeed, or better phrased, better to fail still stands. Or maybe, as you've indicated, its simply more people are less prepared.
- AlexTheFounder 18y agoWe're married for 12 years, have 2 kids and overall we're quite happy. Just because my wife is always right about the house and kids, does not imply anything how deep our relations are. In fact I have more time to hack things because I can leave a lot to my wife. That's how successful companies get built
- scotth 18y agoOn the other hand, things may be better with your contribution, even if she doesn't agree. Playing second fiddle in order to keep peace is just laying down, not being productive.
- AlexTheFounder 18y agoI do not 'keep peace', we both understand that it is the most productive approach. And yes I do have my voice when needed.
