Marc Andreessen post on hiring and management of executives is worth the read.
“Being a startup executive is not an easy job.

I have written before on the need to let go and bring in people whose behavior patterns fit well into your organization. Marc’s post is very clear about the steps required to evaluate the process of Talent Acquisition and Management!
