Think Like an Owner

NOTE

Deciding to decide to not be the best person as the ceo

The framework for deciding whether to continue as the CEO revolves around two axes: having what the company needs and being excited about the work ahead. While being in the upper right quadrant indicates a perfect fit, being in the lower right suggests staying on with a willingness to learn what is lacking. Even in cases where one has the skills but lacks excitement, toughing it out as a founder is still advised. The decision to step down as the CEO may arise when one finds themselves not having what the company needs and lacking excitement for the work ahead. This framework is not only useful for personal evaluation but also for assessing the executive team regularly to ensure the company's success.
