So the leverage is either official (maybe they have a board seat) or (more often) social - founders feel either that they SHOULD listen to their investors because they're older and more experienced or that they have to for various reasons. Makes sense. One thing I always forget about being a founder is that you're constantly reaching places where you have absolutely no experience - and yet you're still in charge. The Collison's for example are younger than me, and I'm pretty young, yet they continue to run a company that is growing at an extraordinary rate. Must be pretty interesting.
