Tim Porthouse is a former startup founder and witnessed what it means to scale a company to over 400 people and 400 million ARR before exiting it in 2008. He's now coaching founders and especially CEOs on how to grow and improve, just like coaches of top athletes do. I wanted to talk to him because he wrote a great piece on boards on his substack, "The Obsessions of a Startup CEO Coach". I recommend reading the piece and of course, listening to this episode.

We talk about what great relationships in the Board look like, why they are important, what 100x time is and why the Board Meeting ultimately is the founders / CEOs meeting.
