Ben Horowitz writes business books about building and managing technology companies when decisions are uncertain and outcomes are rarely clean. The Hard Thing About Hard Things draws on his experience as a founder and venture capitalist to discuss layoffs, executive hiring, organisational politics, crisis management and what happens when standard management advice is too simple for the situation. What You Do Is Who You Are turns towards company culture, using examples from business and history to argue that culture is created by repeated behaviour rather than slogans. Horowitz’s prose is direct, anecdotal and aimed at founders or senior managers dealing with difficult trade-offs rather than beginners looking for a basic entrepreneurship checklist. His work sits within startup management, leadership and venture-capital business writing. The Hard Thing About Hard Things is the central title for readers interested in operational problems rather than inspirational success stories. Read more Less
