The Pursuit of Scrappiness INSIGHT #13: What’s Different in the Mindset of a Second-Time Founder, the Importance of Cofounder Fit, and Why You Shouldn’t Fear Entering an Unknown Industry
This is an insight from our previous conversation on starting a new company as a second-time founder:
- The mindset of a repeat founder differs substantially from first-time founder - more ambition
- Apply a structured approach to figuring out your next business
- Having the right founder is still the main key to success
- Don’t be afraid to start in an unknown industry - there are hidden benefits to that
- Execution beats planning
