In this episode of the Startup Therapy Podcast, Ryan and Will discuss the complex dynamics of maintaining control in a startup. They explore the misconception that not having investors means maintaining control and highlight the various ways founders inadvertently lose control—from customers, co-founders to their own staff. They delve into the idea that control is a currency spent for growth and emphasize the importance of understanding and strategically managing the areas founders are willing or unwilling to cede control over. They reveal how seemingly routine decisions can lead to significant shifts in control, urging startup founders to be proactive in understanding and negotiating these exchanges.
