The risks that destroy ventures hide in shareholder agreements, board dynamics and power structures that shift as companies scale.
Success changes the game. Early supporters gain new leverage. Major wins create new vulnerabilities. The institutional forces that help ventures grow can just as easily constrain or consume them.
Have you protected what you're building, or are you hoping it won't happen to you?
This book shares eighteen lessons learned the hard way: building an innovative firm, navigating complex business transitions and rebuilding from scratch. The goal is seeing structural risks before they strike and protecting what you build while pursuing breakthrough innovation.
Drawing on two decades of practicing law, including more than a decade as partner at White & Case, Ropes & Gray and Jones Day, then experiencing these dynamics firsthand as a founder, the book reveals patterns that emerge when capital, governance and growth intersect.
