Great read. Makes me wish there was something like this for the non-CEO's and non-founders. I'm sure not everyone wants to be a chieftain (or not ready, interested, etc), but still wants to be part of a startup where no one knows anything, don't know what tomorrow will bring, the scrambling, the responsibilities, discovering customers/product value, etc.

ie: Learning to say 'no' and don't be afraid to voice your opinions to CEO/Founders. You know, some bullet points like the OP but more to the audience of those not in founder positions.

Feel free to share articles/links if you have any too!
