The Co-Founder Relationship
Speaking from experience.  Talking to the board when you&#x27;re not a founder or on the board can be a very very delicate things and is likely to get you fired if you approach it incorrectly. I&#x27;d recommend taking <i>one</i> board member out for a coffee and really posing it as asking for advice, not asking the board to get involved. I would also advise against doing this behind the CEOs back. That being said, getting board advice can really help you see how to support the founders more meaningfully.
