ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Politeness kills more companies than conflict.
Alisa Cohn, named the world’s #1 startup coach by Thinkers50, has spent decades coaching founders and executives at companies including Google, Microsoft, Venmo, and Etsy.
She joins Dara to explain why teams hide bad news, how founders confuse high standards with micromanagement, and why sharing every idea can quietly derail a company. They also discuss hiring in the AI era, founder mode, and practical tools for working through imposter syndrome.
