Many great founders fall
victim to startup politics
A study of 4 000 founders showed that about 50% had been kicked out at some point. Assuming an average of 1-2 companies started per founder, this means that the probability of getting kicked out is somewhere in the range of 25-50%. If the company is successful (founders usually are not kicked out of failing companies).

It's a massive waste of creative potential
Anyone can dream up transformative innovations. Few can bring them to life. Visionary founders can. Thus, most companies that have lost their visionary founders loose their transformative potential. The result is half-baked companies and wasted human potential.
