STARTUP CULTURE MINDSET A Primer to Building an Amazing Culture and Tribe was written for startup founders or executives who aspire to create an amazing team that buys into the mission. The key is to understand that the founder of a startup or leaders of a company determine the culture on purpose. And in order to do that well, you have to understand the key elements of a culture framework. Based on 20 years of company creation, leadership and observation, I will share with you the key elements of a culture framework: ‣ Leadership: Led by the founders or key leaders of a startup. ‣ Mission: The goal of the startup from a customer point of view. ‣ Values: The core values of the startup, usually determined by the leadership. ‣ Freedom/Accountability: The key mantra to any successful startup. I will delve into each of these four areas of the culture framework in the book. What you can expect from this book is research and knowledge on culture, a defined culture framework, insights from some amazing company founders and quite a few takeaways that you can incorporate immediately into your daily life. For example, you don't become a leader just because you launch a startup or lead a division in a company. You have to acquire years of knowledge, experience and mentor-based insights as a great follower. Those are things you could be doing right now. Your ultimate goal is to establish the framework for an amazing culture before you actually launch the startup. Then when you recruit your first employee, you will know what type of person you are looking for, not based on a skill set, but based on fitting into your culture. The people you recruit will be critical to your success and they need to feel they are setting out on a powerful mission, guided by great leaders, supported by solid values and fueled by a freedom and accountability atmosphere, all to help your customers attain their goal. If a potential recruit does not fit into this type of culture, regardless of skills, don't hire them. Long term, they will disruptthe "tribe" of your other employees and dysfunction will occur. Do everything you can to keep these people out of your company even if it means you still approve of final recommended hires with a "culture" interview. One final thought on the critical importance of creating a great "tribe" for your startup. Quite a few Silicon Valley investors have said this when investing in a startup team. "Give me a great startup team with even a mediocre idea over a weak team with a great idea every time. Because a great team will know when to pivot and they will trust each other to execute. A weak team will simply fail."

When entrepreneurs seek expert advice to help them put together a compelling business plan, they turn to product gurus, technology experts, and folks with sales and marketing, fund raising, or operations backgrounds. But for guidance on how to create and sustain a high-performance company culture - the softer side of startup strategy - rarely will entrepreneurs find a source of advice and counsel. Culture.com: How the Best Startups Make it Happen fills that void. It is a research-based exploration of what it takes to build and sustain a winning startup culture. Culture.com provides practical advice, insights and diagnostic tools for would-be entrepreneurs, seed capital investors, board members and advisors to young, rapidly growing companies. It is also a valuable resource for educators and students of entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurship is all about innovation. Leaders of established companies who are trying to change their company's culture to foster more creativity and innovation will find this book an eye-opener. It identifies the critical seven dimensions of winning startup cultures, and describes the leadership practices required to support breakthrough innovation. Many of these practices apply to managers at all levels in larger organizations struggling to gain a competitive advantage with their people and processes.

Joblessness is the root cause of the global unrest threatening American security. Fostering entrepreneurship is the remedy. The combined weight of American diplomacy and military power cannot end unrest and extremism in the Middle East and other troubled regions of the world, Steven Koltai argues. Koltai says an alternative approach would work: investing in entrepreneurship and reaping the benefits of the jobs created through entrepreneurial startups. From 9/11 and the Arab Spring to the self-proclaimed Islamic caliphate, instability and terror breed where young people cannot find jobs. Koltai marshals evidence to show that joblessness—not religious or cultural conflict—is the root cause of the unrest that vexes American foreign policy and threatens international security. Drawing on Koltai’s stint as senior adviser for Entrepreneurship in Secretary Hillary Clinton’s State Department, and his thirty-year career as a successful entrepreneur and business executive, Peace through Entrepreneurship argues for the significant elevation of entrepreneurship in the service of foreign policy; not rural microfinance or mercantile trading but the scalable stuff of Silicon Valley and Sam Walton, generating the vast majority of new jobs in economies large and small. Peace through Entrepreneurship offers a nonmilitary, long-term solution at a time of disillusionment with Washington’s “big development” approach to unstable and underdeveloped parts of the world—and when the new normal is fear of terrorist attacks against Western targets, beheadings in Syria, and jihad. Extremism will not be resolved by a war on terror. The answer, Koltai shows, is stimulating entrepreneurial economic opportunities for the virtually limitless supply of desperate, unemployed young men and women leading lives of endless economic frustration.

Day One culture is a startup mentality that gives leaders the ability to fight challenges, embrace change, employ quick decision-making, innovate, and most importantly develop a healthy obsession with customers. Using the mantra and example of technology giant Amazon, Valrie Grant shows startup leaders how they can develop their own Day One culture in their organisation, no matter the size or industry. With real world examples of founding and building GeoTechVision into an internationally reliable and quality provider of a range of customized services and data-driven solutions, Grant shows why the Day One mindset and culture is a model that can help companies to thrive in challenging times. Creative disruption is a way of life at Amazon, and it is understood that under Bezos' leadership the Amazon of tomorrow may have a different face from today, but will definitely have the same core values and organizational culture, which includes its 16 leadership principles that are discussed in detail in the book. Some of the questions explored are: How to be the kind of organization that embraces trends and keeps pace with them? How to avoid the Day Two mindset of stagnation? How to build high performing teams that live the culture of Day One?

Why aren’t the great, qualified women already in tech being hired or promoted? Should people who don’t fit in seek to join an institution that is actively hostile to them? Does the tech industry deserve women leaders? The split between the stated ideals of the corporate elite and the reality of working life for women in the tech industry—whether in large public tech companies or VC-backed start-ups, in anonymous gaming forums, or in Silicon Valley or Alley—seems designed to crush women’s spirits. Corporate manifestos by women who already fit in (or who are able to convincingly fake it) aren’t helping. There is a high cost for the generation of young women and transgender people currently navigating the harsh realities of the tech industry, who gave themselves to their careers only to be ignored, harassed and disrespected. Not everyone can be a CEO; not everyone is able to embrace a workplace culture that diminishes the contributions of women and ignores real complaints. The very culture of high tech, where foosball tables and endless supplies of beer are de facto perks, but maternity leave and breast-feeding stations are controversial, is designed to appeal to young men. Lean Out collects 25 stories from the modern tech industry, from people who fought GamerGate and from women and transgender artists who have made their own games, from women who have started their own companies and who have worked for some of the most successful corporations in America, from LGBTQ women, from women of color, from transgender people and people who do not ascribe to a gender. All are fed up with the glacial pace of cultural change in America’s tech industry. Included are essays by anna anthropy, Leigh Alexander, Sunny Allen, Lauren Bacon, Katherine Cross, Dom DeGuzman, FAKEGRIMLOCK, Krys Freeman, Gesche Haas, Ash Huang, Erica Joy, Jenni Lee, Katy Levinson, Melanie Moore, Leanne Pittsford, Brook Shelley, Elissa Shevinsky, Erica Swallow, and Squinky. Edited and selected by entrepreneur and tech veteran Elissa Shevinsky, Lean Out sees a possible way forward that uses tech and creative disengagement to jettison 20th century corporate culture: “I’ve figured out a way to create safe space for myself in tech,” writes Shevinsky. “I’ve left Silicon Valley, and now work remotely from home. I adore everyone on my team, because I hired them myself.”
