I've recently been interviewed by Paul Moss, discussing how to build a successful startup and numerous other topics.

In the interview I share more about the following five things I have observed as characteristics of highly successful startups:‌

- They have relentless focus on their value flow.
- They grow revenue first, and then optimize processes as they’re moving.
- They understand the key drivers of their growth.
- Their founders can cope with uncertainty.
- The founders are aware that they may not be the best people for management.

Most of the things I discuss apply to corporate entrepreneurs as well.
