Success or Control
An interesting snippet from Victor Lombardi's Noise Between Stations:
"...success with complex problems depends on sharing control with others. Joe Kraus, the founder of Excite and JotSpot has said, 'Very early on, the founders of startups make an important choice. Do they want success or control? …I’ve picked success. And success implies giving up control – hiring people who are much better than you, or being willing to be the janitor if that’s what’s required.'"
