Having worked at the coal face, navigating the launch plans of over 70 founders, Dan has plenty of direct experience to allow him to deliver insight into this topic, including:
✓ Exploring the hidden dynamics that cause the '9 out of 10' startup failure rate.
✓ Unpacking the myths that surround becoming a founder and surviving - particularly in the critical early seed stage.
✓ Exploring the mental health implications that are often caused by that myth.
✓ Re-evaluating the risk, role and responsibilities of joining a startup as an early stage team member.
