About this listen

A definitive book for any CEO - first time or otherwise - of a high-growth company.

While big company CEOs are usually groomed for the job for years, startup CEOs aren't - and they're often young and relatively inexperienced in business in general.

Author Matt Blumberg, a technology and marketing entrepreneur, knows this all too well. Back in 1999, he started a company called Return Path, which later became the driving force behind the creation of his blog, OnlyOnce - because "you're only a first time CEO once."

Now, more than a decade later, he's written Startup CEO. As the fifth in the StartUp Revolution series, this reliable resource is based on Blumberg's experience as a startup CEO and covers a number of issues he's faced over the dozen years he's been a CEO.

Engaging and informative, this book is essential reading for any, and every, CEO.

Fabulous information about company growth but...

If you could sum up Startup CEO in three words, what would they be?

helps consider everything

What was one of the most memorable moments of Startup CEO?

too many to mention, so many aha moments and things I wish I could bookmark

What does William Michael Redman bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

I was easy to listen to but I think this book is better read rather than listened to

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No, too long for that

Any additional comments?

There are a LOT of references to other resources throughout the book and it would be beneficial to have the hardcopy available at the same time you are listening, so things can be highlighted. I was listening at the gym and in the car and always wanted to write things down. Frustrating.
