The Hard thing about hard things – Ben Horowitz

Simply an amazing book! If you are the CEO of a startup that is scaling and you are looking for a collection of learnings that could help you develop multiple perspectives about what the options that are available are, this is the book.

Horowitz talks about several dilemmas that run through the minds of the entrepreneurs. In addition to sharing the personal war stories and several of the other companies that you may have heard about, he gets the challenges to the fore. The issues he talks about cover demoting/firing a friend; using titles and promotions; hiring from a friend’s company; managing personal psychology; hiring the smart people and what to do when they are bad employees; when to sell your company; and many more.

I have recommended this book to several entrepreneurs who I believe are in the stage of looking if they have some right answers. If you are too, get yourself a copy.

Happy Reading!
