At the Los Angeles event, Professor Wasserman will discuss his new book, The Founder's Dilemmas: Anticipating and Avoiding the Pitfalls That Can Sink a Startup, which is based on that course’s framework and draws on more than a decade of research.  The focal point of his research has been the difficult, early decisions that founders face—decisions that have important, long-term implications for themselves and their ventures.  The book integrates his research results, quantitative data (collected on 10,000 founders), case studies and the MBA course.
