Kelly talks about CEO vs Founder in this episode and the essential difference between the two. We hear these terms a lot online, and the term CEO for example sounds very sexy and there’s some prestige. It means you’re a leader and there’s some kind of influencer of people and you have some authority. The other term can mean great wealth, and it can command respect. Both are considered successful by society. “‘Forget CEO. Settle for the title of founder.’ I thought that was good advice. Sometimes you can help your company grow by getting out of the way.”

“The company’s founder is generally perceived as the visionary, the creative force behind the company’s original idea. Their thing that they developed, that pulls, that has value, and they’re deeply passionate about the product, and focused on innovation, while a CEO is seen as more a pragmatic leader responsible for the operations and ensuring the company runs smoothly, often with a broader skill set than a founder, to be quite honest.” 6:00
