The Transformation Principles: How to Create Enduring Change
From the CEO of global investment and transformation company General Catalyst, this powerful, timely set of principles is an essential guide to long-term success, whether in investing, leading a company, or building a career.

And this new reality needs a new set of principles—transformation principles— to guide decision-making for investors, company-builders and anyone navigating a career as they venture beyond.
