The Illusion of Control

Those of us who have been in business or government a long time develop fantastic muscles around strong management of which exhibiting a control over execution and outcomes is the standard fare.

But startup communities are different and the very thing that you desire as a leader (a detailed plan, a flawless execution strategy and a clear set of goals) are the things that will hamper entrepreneurial growth.

We call this the illusion of control and today we talk about the concept, why it is counter-productive, and share a different approach more conducive to entrepreneurs.

Join Brad, Ian and I along with Ben Milne of Des Moines, Iowa and Bob Sopko of Cleveland, Ohio as we wrestle with this critical but touchy subject.
