| Why it’s on the list | Elad Gil’s reference book for the phase after product-market fit — how the CEO’s job changes, hiring and firing executives, what a board is for, restructuring, late-stage financing and acquisitions — much of it assembled as interviews with operators who ran each situation. The reference you open at the chapter that matches the problem in front of you. |
Where I heard about it

Connections
- Elad Gil — the author, and the operator-investor the interviews are conducted by.
- Company Building — the subject.
- Hiring — the executive-hiring chapters are the book’s densest material.
- Entrepreneurship — the stage before the one this book starts at.
