It takes a unique person who is innovative, ambitious, bold and hard charging enough to be a successful entrepreneur. Those unique qualities that make up these leaders shape startup culture and lead to early success and can eventually lead to failure as organizations mature and transition. Jerry Colonna, an executive coach and former venture capitalist at Flatiron Partners, joins us to talk about the characteristics of successful entrepreneurs, the cultures they create and risks as their companies evolve.
"I grew up with questioning safety. Questioning reality. I was just on a call with a coaching client where we were talking about he too had a mother who is mentally Ill and the difficulty of grasping what's real and what's not real. That constant sense of gaslighting and you know,for me, it created a positive side. It created what I often referred to as a hypervigilance where I read rooms." - Jerry Colonna
