People, work at Pillar VC! Yard Stick has nearly a dozen institutional investors and only ONE of them is not exclusively climate-focused. That's Pillar, because they are the bomb. As a PBC, "Climate Impact Above All Else" as our number one core value, yadda yadda, we take shared mission/incentives seriously and don't invite non-climate-first investors onto the cap table lightly. Pillar has been a world-class supporter of me as a person and Yard Stick as a company since literally day one. (Day negative 180 or so, honestly, since Tony Kulesa and Josh Moser and Jamie Goldstein where there long before Yard Stick was even a thing!) They walk the walk of founder support, community-building (esp in Boston), and zero bullshit. Only a small % of what they've done for me/us is shareable publicly - buy me a beer sometime and I'll tell you the rest! If you want to work at a VC with soul *and* rigor, I can't recommend them more highly.

I got fired as CFO last week. I got hired as a CTO @ Nektar. But, Mark, aren't you a CRO?? So CFO is Chief Fun Officer (if you hadn't heard). It's a special role in the Kosoglow family. I screwed up Spring Break pretty bad and my 14 y/o basically gave me the boot after he sat around bored all week. Good news → I have strong plans at the end of next week to make it up. I'm hoping for a boomerang hiring. Will keep y'all posted. I got hired as CTO* (Chief Threading Officer), though. Multi-threading has always been important, but now, it's more than important...it's absolutely necessary to win deals. Bigger buying committes. Less eagerness to spend money. The gravity of status quoa is like a blackhole. Competitors send their execs to offices in jets. So many tools, so much noise...how do you know where to invest? Ultimately, multi-threading is your answer to how to navigate the new selling environment we are in. It's more work, but it's more winning. So..... What you do NOT want to do is tons of work that doesn't help you win more. So, I'm joining Randy Likas this Thursday Aeron Nico M. ET to talk through: 1. how to multi-thread 2. how not to multi-thread 3. how execs view multi-threading 4. how to untie really bad knots in your shoes (tentative agenda item I'm still working out) _________________ *I only get to be CTO for 1 day, so please show up to the webinar so y'all can let me know if I have the technical chops for a career change.
