The old trope of all change and all progress depends on the unreasonable man because the reasonable man does things exactly the same way that everyone else is doing.
That is a reasonable thing to do in any kind of situation.
So you've got to expect that.
And it's a package.
It's high variance people.
All the aesthetics around what people believe to be good leadership comes from movies.
Or the very carefully publicly curated sort of tip of the icebergs of how it actually worked.
If you look at any biography of anything, it's like you realize it's crazy people who caused this.
Like read about Watson, the founder of IBM.
It's just like you think there's tyrants in business right now?
No.
It's like you don't know anything about how these things went back in the day.
So absolute fireworks every meeting.
And so I have this job so other people can have the jobs I wish I could have.
But I'm running interference.
I didn't want to be CEO.
I learned I had to become CEO because you can't run a product-driven company without also being in control of a company.
Because the needs of product and companies are extremely divergent unless you're taking a perspective three years out, at which point they kind of come to the same point and actually augment each other.
Basically, every single day is like a marshmallow test.
Are you going to eat the marshmallow now, or you get two in the future?
