Andreessen Horowitz co-founder Ben Horowitz pulls no punches in this brutally honest guide to running a startup. Unlike most business books that offer tidy frameworks, Horowitz addresses the genuinely difficult situations CEOs face — laying off employees, demoting a friend, managing your own psychology through crisis. Drawing from his time running Loudcloud through the dot-com bust, this audiobook is the most honest account of CEO life ever recorded.
Startup founders, executives, and anyone interested in the honest realities of high-stakes leadership and business management.
