The entrepreneur’s role
From the engine of the business to the architect of capital: when should an entrepreneur change roles?
The real issue is not early retirement and passive income. It is the transition from someone who runs one business to an architect who multiplies capital through many enterprises.
Moving from entrepreneur to investor requires a new allocation of roles. I examine how experience can help another team, how rights over capital are agreed, and how expectations for growth and exit are aligned.
Changing roles is not a withdrawal from creating value. It is a transition towards building an environment in which capital, experience and a well-organised structure allow new businesses to grow. The danger lies in changing your position while retaining your old way of thinking.
