As a company grows, communication becomes its biggest challenge.

There is no silver bullet. There are always options and the options have consequences.

The most important thing you can learn as CEO- one of the hardest things to do is, you have to discipline yourself to see your company... through the eyes of the people that you're working through. Through the eyes of the employees, through the eyes of your partners... through the eyes of the people who you're not talking to and who are not in the room.

The person they're working with, is going to be the person they'll know more. So if that person leaves, they're going to go - well, should have I left too? What did they get and how does that compare to my deal.

In my experience as CEO, I found that the most important decisions tested my courage far more than my intelligence.

Sometimes an organization doesn’t need a solution; it just needs clarity.

Over the last ten years, technological advances have dramatically lowered the financial bar for starting a new company, but the courage bar for building a great company remains as high as it has ever been.
