What's your superpower? Every Founder has one.
At the same time, not every founder has the SAME one.
Which means just because Sara Blakely or Bill Gates did things one way, doesn't mean you also have to do things that way.
When you know your superpower you can better make strategic decisions, acknowledge what should stay on your plate versus what you should delegate, and perhaps most importantly, be aware of your blind spots.
Michelle Denogean has spent decades in the "Director's chair" for several startups, working as a VP and CMO.
She helped her previous company, Roadster, scale from 15 to 200 employees and exit for nearly $400M.
Through all her experiences, she's worked alongside the founder and observed their traits, quirks, and shortcomings.
She combined her experience with psychological research to author her book titled Grow Up! Take your startup to the next level.
In the book, she explains the 4 superpowers of a successful founder and how to identify yours. She steps to the mic in our season finale for a conversation on finding your cape.
