That was - I&#x27;m trying hard here not to be harsh on you - because you let him. If you&#x27;re inexperienced I can easily see how this situation could come into play but you as a majority shareholder, co-founder <i>and</i> CEO have no boss, certainly not your chairman-of-the-board investor.<p>That&#x27;s a relationship that you will have to manage, that&#x27;s for sure but if you see him as your boss you imply that he has the right to throw you out or sanction you and that isn&#x27;t the case, as majority share holders you and your co-founder should be in control of the company and the board should have an advisory role. If the company goes public, hires an outsider CEO who is not a part of the founding team or if the founder-CEO is not seeing eye-to-eye with the other founders then the board can become more dominant.
