So I'm going to show you exactly how to know before you partner up whether this person will still be in the foxhole with you in year five to year 10.
It's not romantic, but it is not fun and is absolutely non-negotiable.
So I want to talk about a partner paradox or why chemistry can potentially destroy.
Partnerships.
So here's what most GPs do wrong from day one.
They optimize for chemistry instead of for complementarity.
You meet someone, you've got great energy, you finish each other's sentences, you laugh at the same jokes.
You both have deep operating expertise and strong investor networks.
You think, this is it, this is the person I want to build this fund with.
And you're completely wrong.
Chemistry can be a trap.
You can have electric energy with someone and zero operational alignment.
You can have great rapport and contradictory decision-making frameworks.
You can genuinely like someone and discover after you're locked in together that they make decisions that are way different and they are ones you would never make.
I call this the founder best friend effect.
The people you most want to partner with, your peers, your friends, the people who make you feel validated, they're often
the worst partners.
It's because they don't challenge you.
They amplify you.
They make you feel right instead of making you better.
