Startup ceo – a field guide to scaling up your business, second edition (techstars) Ebook

Startup exits are the important culmination of the startup experience and something that the first edition of Startup CEO could not address. What a difference a few years make for a successful startup such as ReturnPath. Now its CEO – on to a new career – is resharing all of his real-world experiences from founding a company to leading it through a successful exit. In addition, author Matt Blumberg addresses topic that reflect heightened responsibilities of CEOs around moral and ethical leadership in an increasingly transparent and socially-conscious world.  Whether its the #metoo movement, high profile failures of leadership like airline employees dragging customers off of planes, or something as simple as unconscious bias in the workplace, the best CEOs – particularly those in high growth sectors–now need to approach their jobs differently. Fully revised and update, with completely new chapters on leadership, selling your company, preparing your company for an exit, and personal career transitions after selling your company, Blumberg takes other founders and young CEOs through his experiences, sharing his own personal expertise with exceptional insights from his ongoing and dynamic career as a CEO. Matt Blumberg has written the definitive field guide for being a CEO, which covers the broad topics of storytelling, team building, execution, boards of directors, and managing yourself. He shares lots of his own tips, tricks, and processes, and explains how your role changes as the company grows.
