Founder’s mentality:
@lizziehodgson01
Founder's mentality (also founderitis) is a popular term for a difficulty faced by organisations where one
or more founders maintain disproportionate power and influence following the effective initial establishment of the project, leading to a wide range of problems for both the organisation and those involved in it. The passion and
charisma of the founder or founders, which was such an important reason for the successful establishment of the
organisation, becomes a limiting and destructive force, rather than the creative and productive one it was in the
early stages It occurs in both non-profit and for-profit organisations. It may simply limit the further growth and success of the project, may lead to bitter factionalism and divisions as the scale of demands made on the
organisation increases, or may result in failure.
@thinknat
Basically, get it wrong and the founder mentality suffocates opportunity, ruins possibility and
buries potential in a fog of ego.
