When I meet new founders and suggest that they form an advisory board, I’m often greeted with an eye-roll. One of the main reasons people establish their own companies is to have supreme magisterial control over their empire. They don’t want the obligation of reporting to and taking advice from outsiders who don’t have as much on the line. And they certainly don’t want the extra work and commitment required for the effective use of a board.
