Founders

one of the easiest ways to gauge a startup’s culture is to listen to how often the founders say 'we' vs ‘i’ when talking about wins

when I worked at a hedge fund the culture on my book was to discuss wins with “we” and losses with “i”

ego is the mind killer

how so? I think individual wins being group wins and losses being individual is a great way of removing ego from the equation. You’re in pursuit of intellectual honesty not praise

Feel like unnecessarily accepting responsibility is just another way of the ego reinforcing itself
