The most successful Startup CEOs I've worked with and learnt from share 2 characteristics:1) They adapt their time allocation to what they feel the business needs at that particular time. They might dive in to help with product management one month, then pitch in heavily on sales the next. It can seem random, but they are prioritising to see where their effort can have the biggest impact on success.2) They allocate a lot of their time to stuff that has no short term payoff but feels important. Strategic deals, M&A, team development, investigating new revenue streams, chatting to potential future hires/investors/acquirers etc. Many of these won't come off but this is about option value - 1 or 2 of them might make a huge difference to the company's value.My own best guess time allocation for what it's worth:-25% Team. Hiring, people development, training, team meetings, 1 on 1s etc-20% Product management. I'm filling a role we haven't hired for yet. I like it, and product development is vital for us anyway.-20% Random opportunistic deals. Generally stuff that needs a founder and doesn't obviously sit in someone else's job role. Partnerships, M&A, strategic deals ...-10% sales. Chipping in with major client calls, meetings etc.-15% admin. Finance, metrics, office management, customer support etc-5% vision/strategy. Small time but very important.-5% marketing. -0% fundraising. But that may change if we need it later ..
Thanks
Partly & Theoretically Yes,
But, in my opinion leaders have to dedicating their time as following:
Why ; Relationship and Quality from the main responsibilities of leaders , but Finance can be handled by Finance Manager ,Accountants, and Auditors , and leader supervising them remotely
