Description
What happens for “first time founders”
@early stage of the business π€βοΈ
Building a business from scratch is not something easy. No matter how well documented you are or the number of books and articles you can read about it, you will never be fully ready for what you will be experiencing once youβre in the game.Β
Many people can easily have wonderful ideas, but not everyone is capable of turning these ideas into realities.
And thatβs exactly what schools, books and all the theoretical materials out there canβt teach you about.
Entrepreneurship is not about having the best idea, itβs about knowing how to bring any idea to life and making it stand out from the crowd.
For first time founders, execution is either a synonym of having the βbest business plan everβ or having the best βproduct roadmapβ and following either one of them or both. But a business is more than only a plan or a product.Β
Itβs a whole system in itself, and like any system existing out there, it needs energy to activate a process and produce the desired outcome. That energy can for sure be money, resources, materials, etc. but fundamentally, it is first and foremost the founderβs leadership power and abilities to guide, manage and lead every aspect and element of their business in any circumstances and at all stages.Β
When you can't control what's happening, challenge yourself to alter the way you respond to what's happening. That's where your power is !!
Why “leadership” is a stepping stone for the success of your businessΒ π€βοΈ
It's what every person interacting with your business will see even before being interested in your offers or products: They will judge your leadership abilities first.
It's what will guide all your business decisions: from hiring your team, applying for fund raising rounds, choosing your products features, EVERYTHING starts from there.
It's a complex and less-thought subject that many founders ignore but it's still the NΒ°5 reason of why startups fail.

Excellent, easy to follow, and very insightful course for first-time founders like myself. It really helped me structure many leadership concepts in my head and implement efficient practices to manage my E-commerce business. Recommend it for early-stage founders.
