I have always loved prediction posts, but shied away from them myself, probably out of fear and imposter syndrome. Seeing the the posts of years past from others finally got me over the line and I wanted to share my thoughts here. Since it’s a new decade, it also allows me to go deeper into the future and make even farther out predictions for the future.

Would you agree that as long as something is legal, it’s also ethical and acceptable to you? Unfortunately, words and actions aren’t so black and white, especially when it comes to nonprofit organizations. Ethics is an important topic that individuals, business owners, organizational leaders, and parents have to assess on an ongoing basis. Recently, corporate and political misconduct are also giving rise to this question.
Startup Professionals Musings

Every startup needs a couple of advisors with deep experience and connections in your business domain or financial skills to complement your technical focus. Advisors need to be mentors, looking ahead and directing you on key actions to take or avoid. Unfortunately, many prefer the role of critic, looking backward to highlight your mistakes. These people don’t help you or your startup.

When you have bad credit, it can prove difficult to get any type of loan.

If your business relies on one or more vehicles and something happens to one of them, you are going to need to replace it as soon as possible.

I’ve been a remote worker for 24 years. While I have an office in Boulder, I’m physically in my office for a small amount of time. For many years, this was a function of travel. My investments have always been geographically distributed across the US and I spent the majority of my time between Monday and Friday on the road. I learned how to work in hotel rooms, in other people’s offices, in conference rooms, at coffee shops, and in houses (mine and friends.

by Andrew Sobel, coauthor of “ Power Relationships: 26 Irrefutable Laws for Building Extraordinary Relationships “ Strong relationships are vital to a healthy career. When we can’t make real connections with others in the workplace, they won’t feel loyal to us. We become tradable commodities. When times get tough, we may be the first ones pushed out the door.

You already know that marketing is highly important to the success of your business, but the fact is that there are only so many hours in the day. Sometimes, our marketing takes something of a back seat, with other aspects of running a company receiving a higher billing on the priority list.

2019 didn’t herald any major innovations in how early startup employees receive equity. Which is a shame since, on the margins, the most talented hires deserve more of it. On the positive front, I did encounter more founders making early exercise available to their teams and much less resistance overall to the idea of a 10-15% pool (perhaps because valuations continued to increase so founders themselves were taking less dilution in financings).
