Vital Skills that Startup CEOs Need, Which Multinational CEOs Overlook
Briefly

Startup CEOs experience unique challenges that differ significantly from those in multinational companies. Essential skills for success include resilience to overcome setbacks, with statistics showing that 20% of startups fail within the first year. Furthermore, the agility of startups allows them to pivot and evolve rapidly, providing an advantage over larger competitors. Vision focus is also crucial; startup leaders must cultivate a clear brand identity while adhering to the founding principles that guide their decisions. These skills are less emphasized in established CEOs, where company structures are already defined.
Resilience is a primary skill needed for success. Each time you get back up, the chances of success are more likely: 'Serial entrepreneurs who have failed before, still have a 20% chance of success in their next startup.'
When starting out with PushFar, I learnt that one of the biggest strengths that startups and small businesses had, over larger competitors, was agility to pivot, evolve and scale...the resilience required to keep going.
