Telling The Truth is the Kiss of Death
Seattle Post Intelligencer – Apr 29, 2008
) Just because one boy (or girl) doesn’t like you doesn’t mean that you aren’t cute smart funny and worthy. It just means that it wasn’t the right match. It kinda gets down to chemistry – just like dating – either you have it with an investor or you don’t. Same thing goes from the other side – just because one investor didn’t like a company doesn’t mean it’s a stinker. We take a lot of meetings meet with a lot of people… Just like dating – one little thing can throw it off. It’s nothing more than that. And at the core of it all it’s about personal chemistry. Which is NOT a reflection on the overall worth of the company the entrepreneur OR the investor. Truth # 4 – That’s why we want you to say NO. We won’t take it personally. Entrepreneurs have the god-given gift of exactly enough delusion to believe we’re fabulous even if you don’t.

But it’s about how well guys play together. So it sounds as if the talented Nuggets need to find chemistry something Bryant said his Lakers are doing. “I hope so” he said… “It’s not about talent necessarily. But it’s about how well guys play together. So it sounds as if the talented Nuggets need to find chemistry something Bryant said his Lakers are doing. “I hope so” he said. “That’s kind of the trick. San Antonio’s had it for years. We had it (winning titles from 2000 to 2002).
Building an Exceptional Board
BusinessWeek – Apr 29, 2008
Ric Marshall chief analyst and co-founder of The Corporate Library a governance research and ratings firm says that governance ratings are an important gauge of board-effectiveness but they don’t necessarily identify the best boards. “A great board is magic. It’s human chemistry and the right kind of experience. There are no formulas or recipes. A great board is born in and of itself” says Marshall. In fact a board that takes a check-the-box mentality and lives by the letter of the law is unlikely destined for greatness he says. “In my experience the most compliant boards are usually not bad boards but they are also rarely the best boards.
