Hidden third criterion for choosing an ideal co-founder
Hidden third criterion for choosing an ideal co-founder
Good to think about
1. You should both possess a similar level of ambition. Otherwise, it becomes challenging to navigate the conflicting interests between someone dedicated to building a billion-dollar company and another one who is content with earning a more modest income.
2. Your learning abilities should be aligned, enabling both co-founders to learn at a similar pace. Otherwise, one co-founder may become a burden and eventually a significant obstacle.
3. The third criterion is having disagreements. In approximately 50% of cases, you should hold differing opinions, and in 50% of those cases, your co-founder should prove to be right. Why? You do not want to have a co-founder who doesn’t have an opinion of his own, always agrees with you or who you are significantly smarter than. So being in full harmony with your co-founder in the very beginning is not always a good sign for the project.
