The Challenge: High Equity and Team Misalignment

DATA

1. Not much information about our competitors and no agreement with my team.

Context: The Ufounders Mission

• Ufounders is a kind of accelerator that has the goal to democratize entrepreneurship. The issue was that our business model involved taking 10% of the equity from each startup that enters our portfolio. This was too much equity (imagine you have a $1M company). We were losing a lot of startups with really great founders because of this. I was really upset about the model we were using; it was not complementary to the purpose of the company itself.
• I think in almost all companies, there is something you don't like. In my mind, I was thinking: "We are a team; we all need to go in the same direction.

1. Think Like a Scientist

   When you start forming an opinion, resist the temptation to preach, prosecute, or politic. Treat your emerging view as a hunch or a hypothesis and test it with data.

2. Define Identity by Values, Not Opinions

   It’s easier to avoid getting stuck to your past beliefs if you don’t become attached to them as part of your present self-concept. See yourself as someone who values curiosity, learning, mental flexibility, and searching for knowledge. As you form opinions, keep a list of factors that would change your mind.

3. Seek Opposing Views

   An easy place to start is to follow people who make you think—even if you usually disagree with what they think.

4. Don't Confuse Confidence with Competence

   The better you think you are, the greater
