Startup Funding Espresso – Toxic Founder-Co-Founder Relationship

Toxic Founder-Co-Founder Relationship Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Startups should have a complete team at all times. In the early stages of the startup, this includes a founder and a co-founder. One should be selling it while the other should be building it. It's important to have a solid relationship between the founder and the co-founder. Here are the signs you may have a toxic founder-co-founder relationship One or both are critical of the other. This goes beyond constructive criticism into a personal attack. One or both become defensive in a discussion. Instead of working through the discussion, one shifts the blame on the other. One or both resent the other. This comes out in the form of contempt. During a discussion, one or both withdraw from the conversation. This indicates one or the other is trying to stonewall. Before investing in a startup check the founder co-founder relationship. These toxic signs indicate the relationship will not last and will most likely spill over to the rest of the team. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _______________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: http://investorconnect.org Check out our other podcasts here: https://investorconnect.org/ For Investors check out: https://tencapital.group/investor-landing/ For Startups check out: https://tencapital.group/company-landing/ For eGuides check out: https://tencapital.group/education/ For upcoming Events, check out https://tencapital.group/events/ For Feedback please contact [email protected] Please follow, share, and leave a review.
