Founders

Should you listen to Tim Cook type people (clearly competent in tech and extremely well respected, but didn’t get their success from a startup) for startup thoughts and advice?

Tim Cook is an operator, not a founder. If that's the wheelhouse you need advice in, you could find arguably no better operator than him.

What do you view as the dividing line between those topics

rough sketch, but:

founder: high vision, takes risk, responsible for funding, building core team, etc

operator: ops, evolves/executes strategy, prod dev, mkt, sales, etc

founder can be an operator but isn't a good operator and should get one

tim was an a+ supply chain operator
