It's literally an enterprise software style negotiation or approach to the whole thing.
And the more differentiated your value is, the more you're going to get.
I know, but why would I tell you if I did?
Why would I tell you if I did?
You know, they could, yeah.
Okay, so how would I put it?
Look, I think no matter who you go, nobody's nailed executives all the way.
It's weird because what will happen is executives talk a fucking awesome game.
And there's two things you want an executive to do.
You want them to be able to organize at scale, organize and manage at scale, lead at scale.
You also want them to be epic problem solvers, the most strategic, badass problem solvers alive.
This is like being left-handed or right-handed.
And there's very few people that are ambidextrous.
but you need that.
Now, they're always leaning a little bit one side or the other.
The best executives are the ones that are doing both well.
But I have come to the conclusion over my years doing the stuff is the problem solving is the most important thing.
If you get somebody who organizes and manages well but cannot solve a problem,
they're going to be doing ridiculous stuff in a super organized way.
And sort of my theory, maybe there's a couple theories on how I manage or how I lead, is that the only constraint on your imagination is management capacity.
