Скачать или смотреть How to Manage Your Board Without Getting Managed w/ Marcus Ryu

Most founders approach board meetings like performance reviews: exhausting themselves trying to look good while board members gradually encroach into operational decisions. Marcus Ryu reveals this is a failure mode. In this episode, he reframes the board relationship from governance to advisory, explains why you have more power than you realize through "the power of agenda," and shares the specific practices that kept his board focused on cadence and accountability rather than marketing software decisions. From choosing who's in the room (worth far more than valuation points) to knowing when to escalate to a "code red" discussion, Marcus provides the framework for maintaining founder authority while leveraging board wisdom.
