Derek Lidow — CEO, innovator, and entrepreneur — is on a mission to change these outcomes. Startup Leadership demonstrates how founders can adopt the skills that are required at each stage of their journey.

The entrepreneur's journey is often misunderstood as an idea coming to life. In fact, it is entrepreneurs themselves who must learn to create and lead an organization. Startup Leadership provides aspiring and experienced entrepreneurs powerful tools to grow as leaders.
