You need a partner with shared goals, experiential history, compatible back stories, and most importantly similar risk tolerances.
Every company that I have started has been started with a co-founder. In over half of them, it was the other person’s idea. You need to put your ego and pride to one side when a really good opportunity shows up.
Now this co-founder picking problem is complex, because traditionally, you do look for someone who can do what you can’t. Betty can code, Harry can sell. After all, a baseball team doesn’t need two shortstops. You don’t get married because you can cook, and she can sew or vice versa or gender versa. That’s why they started DoorDash. In the case of technology, the tools are much more advanced and much more accessible. You may not really need a tech genius co-founder as much as you need a partner with shared goals, experiential history, compatible back stories, and most importantly similar risk tolerances. That last one is a sine qua non.
While we are designing the perfect co-founder, let’s add in the ability to manage and thrive in a sea of ambiguity. You might add “ability to juggle” in your job req. I walked up two flights of stairs at the Manchester Grand Hyatt, said hello to Barbara Bry, and when I drove home an hour later, I called my mother and said I had met my future wife. Thirty years so far, no job description yet.
