From the cofounder of a $40 billion software company comes an invaluable guide packed with $1 trillion worth of advice from some of the world's most successful and recognizable entrepreneurs.Over the past 20 years, first as an early employee at Salesforce and later as a cofounder of Okta (a publicly traded software company now valued at over $40 billion), Frederic Kerrest has met the most successful entrepreneurs and investors in Silicon Valley and beyond. He's discussed every angle of entrepreneurship with them-what works, what doesn't, and what to do when things get rough-and he's taken notes. The result is this unmatched blueprint for building and growing a business, drawn from his own experience as well as that of his fellow visionaries and business leaders, who have collectively built over $1 trillion worth of wealth for themselves and their investors. They include Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz (Andreessen Horowitz), Eric Yuan (Zoom), Stewart Butterfield (Slack), Aneel Bhusri (Workday), Julia Hartz (Eventbrite), Aaron Levie (Box), Fred Luddy (ServiceNow), Melanie Perkins (Canva), Patty McCord (Netflix), Sebastian Thrun (Udacity), and dozens of other luminaries.These ideas and practices aren't taught in business schools. They've been learned the hard way, through trial and error in the real world of business. Kerrest has battle-tested them himself, so he knows their power. Organized by topic in roughly the order that leaders will encounter them as they scale their businesses, this book is the ultimate guide to taking a company all the way from founding to IPO-and beyond.

"Impeccably researched and astoundingly insightful, The Root Cause reveals how to go from 'putting out fires' to finding true, lasting solutions . . . A must-read guide for executives and leaders at any stage of their career!" ¿Marshall Goldsmith, Thinkers50 #1 Leadership Thinker and #1 New York Times bestselling author of TriggersSooner or later, every executive has to confront problems that seem to be built into the way the business was designed, maintained, and managed. Whether it's information overload, profit margin issues, or adapting to new regulations, popular "best practices" don't solve those problems. High-level executives, it turns out, are often the least able to diagnose-much less solve-an organization's systemic problems. Hans Norden draws on a wealth of experience in in-house change management to help both established and up-and-coming C-suite leaders analyze the problems and create authentic, sustainable solutions.In The Root Cause, readers will learn how executing change initiatives requires a different form of leadership than routine operations. Norden explains why systemic problems fester, manifesting as disruptions in the workflow of different departments and levels in the company.You'll discover:Why systemic problems keep recurring and thus appear to be without solutionWhy solving systemic problems is a unique and exclusive executive responsibilityWhy a business managed as a collection of separate component parts will experience friction and conflict-and why most business "best practices" are fallaciesWhy identifying the right solution to a systemic problem becomes easy when using a bigger picture perspectiveWhy leaders with a clear vision of the desired future state are better positioned to respond in a timely and adequate mannerWhile top-down management may work on a day-to-day basis, managing and fixing systemic problems requires intelligent collaboration with other management levels to implement improvements. Providing a clear, step-by-step road map to diagnosing issues and establishing authentic, holistic, and sustainable solutions, The Root Cause shows leaders a way to solve the seemingly unsolvable problems-and prevent more from arising in the future.
