Simon and Anastasija discuss the detrimental effects of unresolved disputes, including time drains, decision paralysis, and the impact on team morale and productivity. They also share real-life stories, such as the tumultuous history of Tinder and the rise of Bumble, highlighting the importance of mutual awareness and understanding in co-founder relationships.
