Start-up leadership will only get you so far.

The founder path is isolating, stressful and overwhelming, and few founders survive the scale-up journey unscathed. If you don't scale your leadership as you scale your company, you're unlikely to survive.

Rachel Turner has spent over twenty years helping founders of growing businesses to survive and thrive, so they can lead successful and healthy businesses. The Founder's Survival Guide shows you how to do the same. It shows you how to adapt your leadership style and shift from brave warrior, to considered architect, to wise monarch as your business grows. It addresses some of the most common challenges scale-up founders face, and provides an extensive toolbox to help you manage your team, your energy and your mind.

Listen to this audiobook to:

- Understand what your business, people and stakeholders require of you at different stages of growth, and adapt your leadership style accordingly

- Master the skills of communicating to influence and communicating to manage, and know when to use which

- Stay energetically fit for the marathon, not the sprint

- Avoid the self-sabotaging ego defences that can hold back even the most inspiring founder

- Scale your leadership as you scale your business – from start-up to scale-up to grown-up

Really enjoyed this book. As a founder I have been struggling with knowing how to actually move through not just the business but through life as a founder.

What I liked most about this book was that it touched on things such as watching stress levels, having mindful practices, diet and nutrition, managing people and their temperaments, surrounding yourself with varying types of people such as mentors, people with good access, the mindset to assume based on the level of business you’re operating at ie early stage startup etc. Just so many gems! Only caveat here is that it seems to be written for businesses that are vc backed but even as a bootstrapper I found it very useful. Will be reading, well, listening - again! ✨
