It’s an argument that we’ve all heard before.
You don’t have any experience in this space.
Your team hasn’t worked together before.
You’ve never done this before, how could you succeed?
Some people seem to believe that you can only launch a company in an industry that you’ve been working in with a team for a long time. Add to that the requirement that the team has already launched a few successful startups in the same space and then maybe you’ve got the formula to create a successful startup.
Upcoming Presentation: ATDC’s Brown Bag Series

Just a quick heads up note for those of you in Atlanta (or those that might be in Atlanta). On Wednesday October 25, 2006, I’ll be speaking at ATDC’s Brown Bag lunch series. My discussion will be about the organizational culture of startups. The discussion will be based around a number of illustrative stories. A lot of the stories will be from my Digital Envoy days but there will also be stories from other organizations that I’ve worked with or worked at. I have a feeling the audience is intentionally limited to ATDC companies and employees. If anyone has a strong desire to come and see me blabber on for an hour, let me know and I’ll see what I can do about getting you registered. If you do come, realize that I’ve been out of the speaking circuit for more than a year so I may not be as succinct as before.
