Eric Ries on why success gets founders fired

Original: Eric Ries: Why Success Gets Founders Fired From Their Own Companies

Entrepreneur and author Eric Ries discusses why founders are often pushed out of the very companies they built, arguing that success itself can trigger investor pressure, professional management hires and loss of control. Ries, known for The Lean Startup, explores the paradox in which the best-performing founders are the ones most likely to be replaced. Startups founders and investors are weighing in on whether boards are right to make that trade.

Why now: Ries is a prominent startup voice and the counterintuitive claim that success leads to dismissal resonates with founders and investors debating board power.
