One simple observation is smart people don’t always understand how m & a works. Announcing a deal versus closing a deal are 2 very different things. Before it closes, you ponder & plan. After it closes, you make your move.
Imagine quitting your job because Elon was going to be your boss only to find out... Elon is not going to be your boss.

People “really” like free food & drinks even if they may be readily available in the city they are traveling to 😳
I've never wanted to go hang out at a skyclub after my flight has landed, but apparently, a lot of people feel strongly about that.

I don’t know of any industry outside of residential contractors where the industry norm w clients prospects is 1) don’t respond 2) don’t show up 3) show up at unscheduled & inconvenient times 4) don’t provide any project or billing updates. Seems like huge opp 4 entrepreneurs

A strong culture team that believes in it will allow you to pivot confidently on these 2 keys things. Startups will evolve and change their brand story if they are growing and successful. Culture provides the true defense when you need it & offense when ready to take off.
Brand and storytelling can become your startups most defensible moat.
