Similar to people, companies also have chronological age and psychological age and they are not necessarily the same. Psychological age is determined not by how is is the company, but by its openness to new ideas, by willingness to take risks and to learn.

One small observation: I used to be quite skeptical to glassdoor reviews and recently changed my view a bit. There is certanly value in glassdoor reviews like in any information, the problem is - how do you filter out noise and find gold nuggets? the goal is to find reviews that are (1) objective; (2) genuine; (3) actionable (or at least relevant)

Here is a simple framework for analysing professional CEOs (it's different from founder CEOs framework). You need a confluence of all 4 elements to get truly outstanding results. Skill: they should have a good track record, have a strategy/plan, have a team, being able to learn fast; possess all qualities of a great leader etc

Been studying management as a value driver for the past year. One of key takeaways - what really matters is not how good management team is in absolute terms, but how good management team is RELATIVE to management teams of competitors. Potentially great setup: outstanding management vs mediocre management (example: Lisa Su vs Krzanich/Swan)
