This is amazing, the new triple bottom-line company...? not for the environment but for the people. Interesting times call for innovation everywhere. Go Pro announced the opposite news today as highest compensated CEO (sold shares). Persona

I feel like my strengths might not be coding in itself, as I am more of a growth / biz dev personality. However, I do love putting ideas into motion and I am learning to launch my own web apps in my spare time (as simple as they may be

Thanks for the feedback! Doing that now, just joined early-stage startup and learning how to build a growth engine... seems like a natural fit for me. As they say hindsight is 20/20, I just thought it could be interesting to get people

Update: 13 total submissions. All Founders that had rated their partnership 1, 2, or 3 stars knew each other less than 1 year. All founders that knew each other 5+ years had 5 star ratings. Funding does not seem correlated with co-founder h

This is very cool. One thing I've also wondered about is letting talent adjust compensation on floating scale between $$$ and equity... also, as in "earn-in"! I thought this could be an great way to attract high-impact team m

Very interesting article, especially for a technology enthusiast with a formal background in urban development. I think there is tremendous opportunity in this market, as cities start sharing data and aim to build "smart cities".
