As a founder, you are the one setting the bar.

As a founder, you are the ultimate influencer.

However you set the bar, your followers (employees) will follow. If it’s too low, capable ones will leave. If it’s too high, those who are not capable will leave. If the bar is set high but not consistent with your actions, capable people will leave as well.

The art of setting the bar lies in understanding your own role as a founder.

What is your framework for setting the bar?

Cheers.
