From the Publisher
"Turn your startup into the next Google or Twitter"
"Elad Gil is one of Silicon Valley's seriously knowledgeable and battle-tested players. If you want the chance to turn your startup into the next Google or Twitter, then read this trenchant guide from someone who played key roles in the growth of these companies."
—Reid Hoffman, co-founder of LinkedIn, co-author of The Alliance and The Startup of You, and host of the podcast Masters of Scale
"Straight-shooting insights on complex topics"
"Elad eschews trite management aphorisms in favor of pragmatic and straight-shooting insights on complex topics like managing a board of directors, executing functional re-organizations with as little trauma as possible, and everything in-between."
—Richard Costolo, former CEO of Twitter and serial entrepreneur
"Learnings for the next generation of entrepreneurs"
"Elad first invested in Airbnb when we were less than 10 people and provided early advice on scaling the company. This book shares these learnings for the next generation of entrepreneurs."
—Nathan Blecharczyk, cofounder of Airbnb, Chief Strategy Officer, and Chairman of Airbnb China
"Every useful lesson about building companies in a single, digestible book"
"Elad jam-packs every useful lesson about building and scaling companies into a single, digestible book. My only gripe is that he didn't write this when we were in the early days of Box as it would have saved my a** countless times."
—Aaron Levie, cofounder and CEO of Box
