📚 Book recommendation for founders, innovators, and anyone who’s ever built business from scratch:
Last week, I read “Founders’ Stories: Scheitern als Geschäftsmodell” (“Founders’ Stories: Failure as a Business Model”) – and I have to say: it’s one of the most honest and insightful books on startups I’ve come across.
As someone who regularly speaks and leads workshops on startups, innovation, AI, and XR, I see myself in many of the stories shared here.
Especially because I’ve been on that journey too: we built a successful company from the ground up. We’ve seen the highs and the lows and this book captures that rollercoaster authentically and powerfully.
What I appreciate most is the honesty.
Failure isn’t an exception: it’s part of the process.
And that’s exactly what makes these stories so valuable!
Huge respect to Axel Täubert (the editor), and all the contributing founders: THANK YOU for sharing your experiences so openly!
Highly recommended for anyone who’s building, failing, learning, and growing.
